However, some users prefer to have their Common Name value displayed in the system instead of the givenName, sn combination.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I tried changing the below config to pull CN attribute but it does not look good on the system because the CN contains the full name of the user. For e.g - the name now appears as John Doe, Doe. The format is Common Name, SN. I tried removing lastName attribute from the LDAP sync properties but still it gets pulled from AD.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>ldap.synchronization.userFirstNameAttributeName=givenName</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>ldap.synchronization.userLastNameAttributeName=sn</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Whats the correct way to change user details? These fields in edit profile page is disables as they are synched up with AD.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>We are on 4.0.2</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Thanks</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Jerry</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Thu, 21 Aug 2014 16:25:07 GMT jjacobwip 2014-08-21T16:25:07Z Editing First Name and Last Name in an AD synched instance https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/editing-first-name-and-last-name-in-an-ad-synched-instance/m-p/296365#M249495 Hi,Our Alfresco instance is configured for AD authentication and synchronization and the first name and last name for users are pulled from the below properties.
