Yalon, this is what Manoj Jain (BofA) sent me today to explain it further:
If we use “user search field” as mail (current scenario), we can login with our email IDs using LDAP with SSO auth. But we can’t login with service IDs (non-email Ids).
And, if we use “user search field” as sAMAccountName, we can’t login with our email IDs with LDAP/SSO auth. But we can login with service Ids. Service Ids don’t have email ID associated with it.
The Aha! Idea was created so we can login with emails IDs (with SSO) and service Ids both irrespective of “user search field” as mail or sAMAccountName.
BofA engineer Manoj Jain responds to the two questions:
1. Do you want users to be able to log in with an email and a username, or just email?
Email id for users to be able to login with SSO.
And a username too, so we can login with the service ID account (as service ID account doesn’t have email ID associated with it).
2. Can you give more details?
CPD 4.0.2 is SSO enabled and in LDAP configuration we are using "user search field" as mail. And in this case, we are not able to login to CPD with service ID when sso enabled.
Also "user search field" , we tried both- mail or sAMAccountName
With mail, we are not able to login with service ID as it gets authenticated with email addresses and our service ids are not associated with email address.
When we tried sAMAccountName, service ids are getting logged in but non-service IDs (employee IDs) are not getting authenticated as non-services IDs are using email address as username.
From customer/Burt:
Yes, it should be both.
Email id for users to be able to login with sso. And a username too, so we can login with the service ID account (as service ID account doesn't have email ID associated with it).
Hi Burt,
Do you want users to be able to log in with an email and a username, or just email? Can you give me more details?
