It's instant doc id - 19712 -----Original Message----- From: Patterson, Norman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 14 June 2002 11:55 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: ADC changing Common Name Hi all, We're currently testing a migration from NT4.0/Ex5.5 to Win2K/Ex2K and have come across the following. Migration of accounts using ADMT creates the accounts in the AD with Common Name set to SamAccountName (the NT logon username). So far, so good. This is what we want. Using an ADC Connection Agreement to replicate the Ex5.5 mailbox details into the AD, results in the Common Name being changed to be the Ex5.5 mailbox display name. Our in-house account management system requires the CN to be the SamAccountName. We can programatically change it back, but it would be nice if it didn't happen in the first place. Any ideas on how to stop this? Any ideas as to why it happens? - we can think of no logical reason to do this. TIA, Norm _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This e-mail (and any attachments) is confidential and may contain personal views which are not the views of the BBC unless specifically stated.
