SAM Account Name atribute

Hi all,
have an issue in Orchestrator which I am trying to debug but after reading some posts on TechNET I am not sure anymore it can be done. To the point. I am creating new mailbox via orchestrator, it's creating user, mailbox... everything is fine. Creating
name of the mailbox, but when creating ACL for the mailbox, and SAM account name for it, it always croppes the name to 20 characters lenght, because of that somethimes I tend to get an error, that such SAM account name already exisits and mailbox cannot be
created to the end by orchestrator. On the other hand, creating such mailbox, and giving it some account name manually allows to put there more characters than only 20. I know 20-characters limit comes form desire to be compatible with pre WIN2000 systems,
hovewer is there a way to change it in Orchestrator or this is pre-defined and it's just the way it is.
In my company we don't need to keep this 20-characters limitation, neccesarly...
Thanks for all imput on that,

Hi Friends
In Lync 2010/Outlook 2010 clients can show the field "Alias" while the same field is not visible in 2013.My question is, whether we have any option to make this also visible on Lync/Outlook.
In our company if Sam account name is A12345 then “Alias” will be the same .Also his internal phone number will be 12345 and his DID number will be Tel:+xxxxxxxxxxx;Ext:12345. Hence it is very
important for us to display ”Alias”  it in the user property page in Outlook /Lync.

    my mac book pro got stolen and i just purchased a new one is there any way i can recover my purchased songs and movies from i tunes. I have the same account name, password and everything

    Yes. Update to iTunes 10.3.1
    Then go to the iTunes Store and click Purchased "new" under Music Quick Links on the right side of the iTunes window.
    You can re download your purchased content from the next window.

  • Same account name on two computers can't write over network

    I'm having great difficulty synchronizing two computers. One is an iMac and the other is a MBP. They are both used only by me for work. I don't need to share them with anyone else, only with each other. The main account is exactly the same on both of them as the iMac is a Migration of the MBP, so the user name and password are identical.
    Regardless of how I set sharing/permissions on any given folder, I can only read in either direction. Whenever I try to write, it asks for authentication (odd since the volume is already mounted), then says the file already exists (even though it doesn't) would you like to overwrite? I click overwrite, and then it comes back and says "you can't overwrite since the file already exists". Huh?? Looking at the destination the file does exist, but is zero bytes.
    I finally created a dummy admin account on one of the machines, logged into this account from the other, and then things work like you would expect. I can write to those directories of the main account that have write privileges and not to those that don't.
    So my question, is there anyway to just log into the main account, which is exactly the same on both machines and be able to write? This odd behavior seemed to start somewhere around 10.5 as I was always able to do this before.
    Thanks,
    Darryl

    I am having exactly the same problem, also with an iMac and a MBP. My iMac is about 6 weeks old, and I migrated via Time Machine. I can read the files from the connected machine, but cannot write, regardless of which is the host. Permissions are all fine.
    I did notice one thing: the UUID number for the accounts is the same (accounts have same name as with darrylh). You can find this under System Preferenes>Accounts and right click or control-click on the account name after unlocking it. I am working with Apple support on this, but no resolution yet. I suspect that the UUID (Universally Unique ID) should not be the same on two machines, but I don't know the consequences of changing it or which one to change.
    Thanks.

  • Authentication - same account name on 2 LDAP servers

    We have our mac clients set up to authenticate against 2 LDAP servers, one Open Directory, one eDirectory - to keep things easy for our users I want to use the same login username for both OD and eDirecotry users - we basically have users logging into both Windows and Macs, I want a specific set of users to have home directories on our Mac server (only when logging into the the Macs), and to pick up their Windows home directories when logging onto Windows machines. I have the Mac server set above the eDirectory server in the Directory Utility search policy (client machines), but when I log in with a network account I am prompted to choose which account to use (eDir or OD similar screen to having managed users in different groups where you are prompted to choose your profile at login). I thought that by specifying the order in the search policy the client machine would authenticate the first account found rather than prompting for which account to use. Any one know of a way to make this happen - ie set up identical accounts on both LDAP servers and have the macs authenticate the first account found on the server specified in the Directory search policy instead of offering a choice? I hope this makes sense. I know it would be easier to mount a network share on the mac server for certain users and have all the accounts authenticate via eDirectory, but I have to do it this way. Anyone have any advice??

  • I have enrolled for the apple developer program but apparently have the same account name in iBooks. I need to change the iBooks account but don't know how. Do I change my apple id? Will this cause me problems with iTunes etc etc?

    I have enrolled for the apple developer program but apparently already have an account with iBooks, cant have this it seems.how do I change my iBooks account, is this the apple id for my iPad and if I change this will it cause problems accessing iTunes etc?

    I guess nobody knows if the crash that occured was legitimate or not?  Apple phone support could do nothing for me, so I guess I am left to drive 45 minutes to the nearest store.

  • Should I have the same admin account name on multiple computers

    Currently I have a Macbook with an admin account plus 2 user accounts. When get a 2nd macbook, should I use the same admin name on the 2nd computer? I was thinking of making all admin account names the same for multiple macbooks, time machine, network etc. Maybe it doesn't really matter and it just means remembering multiple login names and passwords. On a related question, should the same account name be used on multiple computers. This would create a home directory on each computer with the same name. Would it be best to keep seperate names? I am refering to computer accounts, not itunes or app store accounts.

    It doesn't really matter, but my vote is for different Admin names and passwords and for different computer/disk names.
    The first one is for increased security (if someone breaks your password on one, they won't have access to the other). The second one is to easilly distinguish the different macs and disks in a file sharing, network browsing and syncing situations.

  • There are multiple users with the same display name

    Hi,
    We have a user and when she get an item assigned to her she sees the following alert:
    "There are multiple users with the same display name USERNAME and at least one of them does not have read permissions to some of the files"
    Now I looked in the database and when I run the following query with the username:
     SELECT     
         [ProviderDisplayName]  
        ,[DisplayName]  
        ,[HasDisplayName]  
        ,[Domain]  
        ,[AccountName]  
        ,[UniqueUserId]  
        ,[LastSync]  
      FROM [Tfs_Configuration].[dbo].[tbl_Identity] where displayname like '%USERNAME%'  
    Then I get 2 same usernames back, How can I get rid of one of them ? When I access TFS trough the portal I only find 1 occurence of this user.
    We use VS2013 and TFS2013 update 4
    Best regards

    Hi DSW,  
    Thanks for your post.
    In your query result, please check if these two users have the same Account Name. if they are two different Account Name in result, it indicate there’s two users have the same display name in your AD, please check that two users’ information in
    your AD. We suggest change one user’s display name in AD.

  • More then one student license on same account

    Hello. Can i have more then one student license on same account. The 60% of thingy. One for home, one for work and one for the notebook. They may run simultaneously because of the friends using the computer. All 3 computers will use same account name and password.

    You may install software on up to two computers. These two computers can be Windows, Mac OS, or one each.
    If you install on a third computer, it will request you to de-activate on the other two computers.  You can then reactivate one of the previous two computers, and use Creative Cloud apps on it.
    If you regularly need to use the Creative Cloud on more than two computers then it would be best to purchase an additional subscription.  This is the same licensing btw which we have for our prepetual product.  An advantage though for Creative Cloud over the perpetual product is that you can install on Mac and Windows with the same subscription!
    As it stands, the EULA states that you can install it on up to two computers at a time, however, you cannot use applications on those computers simultaneously. This is the case even when you are not using the same application

  • Changing the account name

    When I setup my new Mac, I created the same account name as my old Mac. This is creating problems during my migration.  How do I change the main account name?

    No need for response.  I was able to solve this through some trial and error.

  • Same Account/Username on two Macs

    My wife and I have an iMac, the Account name is different than the User Name-(home folder) and that's fine, we like that.
    My wife just bought a new MBP 2.53 Unibody.
    When we set it up I'm wondering:
    I would like to use the same Account name/password and User Name-(home folder) that is on the iMac.
    Are there any advantages or disadvantages to this?
    Would this cause confusion in any way?
    I hope I'm asking this correctly.
    We will more than likely want to have the same music and photos on each computer the rest will remain different...if possible.
    Should I use Migration Assistant to do this or is there another way that's not too complicated or long?
    I admit that I haven't looked to deeply into it, not sure where to start. So, if anyone can get me in the right direction or provide some info that would be great.

    I'm understanding that when we use MM it will name the MBP Account and Folder name the same as the iMac (which we are ok with) unless we set up the MBP with a different Account and Folder name.
    Then, we will have to transfer files using something other than MM.
    Is this correct?
    With the understanding that the Account and Home Folder name on the two computers will be the same, is this going to cause any problems or confusion using the two computers in the same house?
    Incidently, the iMac has a external HD, 70% partition for TM and 30% for video storage.
    No problem
    Or, should each computer have at least a different Folder name?
    Not necessary.
    Also, my wife would like both computers to have the same info and be kept up to date with each other, but that's probably a different post.

  • Using old account name after it has been deleted

    I deleted an account because I learned that the only way you could re-name the short name was by deleting the account altogether.
    I had problems deleting the account from the admin account, even afer shutting off "fast users" and "auto login". THerefore, based on some other posts in discussion group, I used applications/netinfo manager/users then deleted the account name.
    I re-started and sure enough the account I was trying to delete, was gone.
    Now, I'm trying to go back and create the account again using the same account name, it own't accept it. I keep getting a message saying "Name is not available".
    I'd like to create an account with the same name. Any suggestions??

    In the NetInfo Manager, look for other instances of that name and delete them from the list of groups as well as from the membership of the remaining groups. Users and groups with a numeric ID below 501 should not be deleted. A tool called ChangeShortName can be used to change the short name of an existing account.

    Hello

  • SharePoint 2010 Web Analytics showing user Display Name and Account Name from the same user

    Hi!
    Since July, 16th 2012 the Web Analytics Daily Unique Visitors reports started to show almost the double of visitors we used to have on our Web Application. Here are some of the data (I intentionally deleted the weekend data):
    10/7/2012 2.497
    11/7/2012 2.723
    12/7/2012 2.722
    13/7/2012 2.699
    16/7/2012 5.055
    17/7/2012 4.963
    18/7/2012 4.954
    19/7/2012 4.998
    20/7/2012 4.965
    23/7/2012 5.117
    24/7/2012 5.012
    25/7/2012 5.071
    As you may notice the data jumped from around 2.700 unique visitors to around 5.000 unique visitors. As the number of permissioned users remains constant it is pretty odd. I also checked the Number of Page Views report and see no change on its behavior.
    The number of page views remained constant.
    So I went to look the Top Visitors report and understand why the visitors number almost doubled. The analytics started to count the users Display Name and Account name as two different visitors with a different number of page views. Let me show you an example
    from yesterday (July, 25th) Top Visitors report:
    #     Visitor                  Page Views    %
    1    Cinthia XXXXXXXXXX    359        0,55%
    5    Giselle XXXXXXXXXX     143        0,22%
    7    Aline XXXXXXXXXX       138        0,21%
    15  nt\cmazevedo              111        0,17%
    60  nt\gbsantana                 69        0,11%
    73  nt\aglsiqueira                 65        0,10%
    "Cinthia" and the account "nt\cmazevedo" are the same person. The same is applied to "Giselle" / "nt\gbsantana" and "Aline" / "nt\aglsiqueira".
    As I stated this is an example from July, 25th. If I checked the same report from a period before July, 16th I can only see the users Display Name as "Visitors". No account name is displayed or counted as a different visitor.
    About the environment:
    We have two SharePoint 2010 farms: a "corporate" and a "enterprise". The corporate farm contains four web servers and a central administration servers with publishing services. The enterprise farm contains two servers running User Profile Services, Search
    Services and some others. Our main version is the SP1 with June/2011 Cumulative Update with a few more hotfixes applied.
    This behavior on analytics is affecting all web applications (we have more than 20) installed on this farm and my company Support team said that no change were made on SharePoint on the weekend the problem started.
    Does anyone have any tip about what is going on?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi, Manas!
    First of all thanks for your interest on this issue but I don't think it is related to the User Profile or the Active Directory.
    I checked both records and there was no change on the Display Names. All the users have "full names" as display names (first + middle + last name) and not logins as SharePoint is displaying on this report.
    But I did a test yesterday and checked the results today confirming that just the access been made using a specific server are causing this. Explaining it better:
    I have four web servers on my farm named from P01 to P04. Then I created this test script:
    Step 1: Change local HOSTS file to point the web application on the server P01.
    Step 2: Access site "A"
    Step 3: Access site "B"
    Step 4: Close the browser.
    Step 1: Change local HOSTS file to point the web application on the server P02.
    Step 2: Access site "C"
    Step 3: Access site "D"
    Step 4: Close the browser.
    Step 1: Change local HOSTS file to point the web application on the server P03.
    Step 2: Access site "E"
    Step 3: Access site "F"
    Step 4: Close the browser.
    Step 1: Change local HOSTS file to point the web application on the server P04.
    Step 2: Access site "G"
    Step 3: Access site "H"
    Step 4: Close the browser.
    I asked three users to execute that script. The results: All access to the sites "C" and "D" were registered on Web Analytics with the user account name such as "nt\cmazevedo". All the other sites registered the user Display Name correctly such as "Cinthia
    XXXXXXXXXX".
    With this test we could isolate the problem just on the server P02. It doesn't occur on the others. Now my support team is trying to find any configuration difference between this server and the other three that could point for the root cause.
    I am also looking for some information regarding the service responsible for this task ("transform the account name into a display name") to understand why it doesn't work on one server and works on the others.
    Thanks!

  • Home sharing not working on ipad with different account name but same apple id that was created, what to do?

    PC is set up for home sharing and 2 iPads and 1 iPhone is sharing fine.  1 iPad and 1 iPhone is not home sharing.  The only difference on the devices not working is that the Apple account name is [email protected] while the Apple ID is [email protected] which is also the Apple ID used in creating Home Sharing and is the account used on the devices that are working.  Do they need to be the same?  My wife has her own iTunes account.  If they are the same how would her purchases be charged to her account?  Thank you for any help.
