Hi,
I would recommend first we will look at the alfresco.log.
When you change the information in the second ldap only(no changes in first ldap), does LDAP 2 is getting synced with alfresco?
Once you modify the values in the AD, can you please restart the alfresco synchronization subsystem, to check it out immediately?

Hi muralidharand, Thanks for the reply. The folders ldap-ad1 and ldap-ad2 could not be found. Hence the error. Placing the Authentication folder under subsytems folder in /shared/classes/alfresco/extension/ worked.

Hi Juilee,
In our organisation, we have placed the authentication subsystem files under the alfresco repository's extension as shown in the attachment.

To know more about, Alfresco Repository subsystem and its extension paths, refer the below url.
