Description

I had issues using the example AD search filter in your documentation. I got it to work by simplifying the User filter. Instead I used (&(objectCategory=Person)(userPrincipalName=%s))

Once I did this it let me login. But I did notice some issues in the Log file. If I try to do the “Synchronize external user data” under the Dashboard tab. It says this for all of the users. Does it not like the “-” in the domain name?

Also noticed when it runs across this issue it will automatically deactivate any AD user. Disabling “Enable User Synchronization” stopped the deactivation.
