User Logon Name domain list

We are in the process of turning on DirSync and later ADFS. I've been on the phone with MS and have a question. After running DirSync the program was changing our user logon names because our actual internal/local domain was not verified within the Azure/Office
365 systems. So, I'm looking into different options as to how to fix this.
Quick description of our domain.
Server 2008 R2 native Empty root with all everything in the child domain. So company.domain.com. With all users and everything being in the company domain. This is actually a different name then our email domain which we'll say is email.com.
The domain we have verified in the Office 365 environment is email.com. While we have registered domain.com on the public internet we have no records defined. Everything external is in the email.com public domain.
In troubleshooting our dirsync user issue the engineer opened the users property page in AD users and computers. From there he went to the "Account" tab.
There it showed the User logon name: user1 @company.domain.com with a down arrow. I've looked at the pull down before and I've seen two options... domain.com and company.domain.com... I've always assumed just because these are our two onsite
local domains that my DC's know about. Well, he picked the pull down and there were three options... the two internal domains PLUS email.com. I have no idea when that showed up. He mentioned if we set the users
UPN there to email.com instead of company.domain.com dirsync would work properly... And we tested that and it did.
My question is what determines this drop down list? And what are the ramifications of changing my internal users to that email.com domain.
I've tested logging into various PC's on site after I changed a test user to that email.com domain and everything seems to still work fine. I have access to corp data, email... I can't find an issue.
Can anyone enlighten me with this?
Sorry for the long description... I hope I've been relatively clear...
Thanks in advance
RS

Respectfully,
While the original problem described was related to Office 365, my question is 100% Directory Services related and has nothing to do with Office 365. I'm sorry if my post was misleading.
In Active Directory Users and Computers, in a user objects properties page, under the "Account" tab. At the very top it shows
User logon name:
<<USER LOGON>> a separation and a <<@domain>> box. With a pull down list populated with what I thought were the domains in the local AD forest.
My question is what populates or what determines what is listed in this pull down... As stated, I thought it's populated with the Active Directory domains in the local AD forest. But, the pull down in my case has one extra...
@company.domain.com (default and my primary AD domain)
@domain.com (my empty root domain in my AD forest)
@email.com (I have no AD domain for this but it is my primary email domain)
I thought about this last night and I know Exchange is very integrated into AD... So does Exchange input its primary email domain into this AD pull down list as well? I have Exchange 2010 on site.
Thanks

User Logon Name (pre-Windows 2000) and Domain Name Don't have the same Value

Hi
is it possible to have User Logon Name (pre-Windows 2000) and Domain Name with different value?
Exemple:
domain name domain1.com
and User Logon Name (pre-Windows 2000) Domain2\user

If you have trust in place, then also you can use trusted domain name to login from trustee domain. Also, UPN suffix can be added.

Searching by "User Logon Name"

Hey guys
I am currently searching the AD by a user's Common Name. For example:
String searchFilter = "( & ( objectClass = user ) { CN = " + commonName + " } )";But if I want to search the AD by a "User Logon Name", what do I write in the search filter instead of "CN"? Is this piece of information even available?
If not, is there any other way for me to search the AD by a "User Logon Name"?
Thanks
Noam

Ordinarily I would suggest that you browse the Active Directory using a tool such as ldp.exe and it would become quite obvious which attributes are used to store the user logon names.
But because it's Monday, the birds are chirping and it's not raining, I'll make it kind of easy for you:
If you are logging with a NT style domain name like ANTIPODES\alberte, then you will want to search for soemthing like:String searchFilter = "( & ( objectClass = user ) (samAccountName = alberte) )";otherwise if you are using an e-mail style logon name then your search will look something like:String searchFilter = "( & ( objectClass = user ) ( userPrincipalName = [email protected] ) )";

Fixing the user logon name after a mistake in a script

Hello,
I ran a bulk import of user accounts into my AD, however when I ran the script there was an error in the UPN name. Now all the accounts have the following logon names:
{Domain.local}
Rather than
Domain.local
Making a user's UPN name:
User1@{domain.local}
Rather than deleting the accounts and re-running the script I would simply like to run a powershell command which will search for all the account withs {domain.local} in their UPN and change them to domain.local.
Can anyone assist?
Thanks.

Hello dbutch1976,
you can use Active Directory Module for Windows PowerShell.
Then, I have this question: is your SamAccountName equal to UPN prefix (e.g. SamAccountName:
toby.brown - UPN: [email protected])
If yes, the PowerShell script should be:
Get-ADUser -Filter {UserPrincipalName -like "*@{domain.local}"} | Select SamAccountName | ForEach { Set-ADUser -Identity $_.SamAccountName -UserPrincipalName "$($_.SamAccountName)@domain.local"}
...if not:
Get-ADUser -Filter {UserPrincipalName -like "*@{domain.local}"} | Select SamAccountName, UserPrincipalName | ForEach { Set-ADUser -Identity $_.SamAccountName -UserPrincipalName $($_.UserPrincipalName -replace "{domain.local}","domain.local")}
Bye,
Luca

Impact on roaming profile accounts if we Change User logon Name to Employee Number format in Active Directory for all User accounts

I want to understand if we change User logon Name to Employee Number format in Active Directory for all User accounts, then what would be the impact on existing profile. Whether we need to change it manualy or it will connect to same profiles in terminal
session.
As i observed it create new profile after logon name changed to employee number where existing users profile settings get fails to load and prompt for new settings (such as outlook reconfiguration, share drive mapping etc.).
Kindly let me know the proper process to overcome with this, how to connect same existing roaming profile with employee number format change.

Hi,
What if we change the user name of user account, will it have impact on roaming profiles.
Yes, it will affect roaming profiles. Please rename the roaming profile folder as the new user account name, in addition, change the profile path in ADUC.

Capture user logon name

Hello!
I have posted my question in the JSP forums...but perhaps it is more correct to post it here.
I want to control who is accessing to our intranet web pages. I want to retrieve the user logon name , but without promt, and store the ids into a database
Is it possible?
Can this be done using an applet?
Thank you very much in advance.

System.getProperty("user.name");Oh man, I guess I shouldn't be posting today.
Maybe therE's an entry in the Session object's properties? (Too long ago...)

User/group names & domain

Hi,
I tried to put a security on a button but when i click on "Add" it gave the following message: "can't get the user/group names for the currently selected domain"
How could iIcreate a domain ?
and how could I create an user/group name ?
Thx,
Samer,

Hi Guys I'll try to answer all your questions
i only want to know, where you press "add" and what you try to do.
When i right click on the control and go to "Security" then click on "Add" i have the message above
What is your application. Where do you want to create a domain?Can you elaborate?
I try to have several accesses to a VI: student, professor, administrator...So i thought of creating domains for security access of each control
Are using LabVIEW DSC?
Yes i am using DSC module...
I think you start with something like Tools >>> DSC >>> Security
What is the difference between Tools >>> DSC >>> Securitys and Tools>>>Decurity ?
Samer,

0#.w | prefixed user logon name

I have SP 2013 Application which uses my custom claims provider(overridden SPClaimsProvider). For some users it display user as 0#.w|domain\Accountname . Actually why this 0#.w comes and when this comes? Kindly help.
jaik

0#.w is a claims identifier. Its like having the Domain name in front of a login name when using AD. Here's an article that explains the encoding.
http://www.wictorwilen.se/Post/How-Claims-encoding-works-in-SharePoint-2010.aspx
If a user has a Display name defined that SharePoint can see then the Display name will be used in most cases. But sometimes there is no Display Name avaialble in the identity provider. In that case the login name is used. For a claims
based user it is something similar to what you are seeing.

How do I find the logon name associated with a roaming profile folder

Hello,
We have Server 2003 R2 Enterprise and Windows 7 Enterprise workstations.
We normally name the profile path \\server\profiles\%username% and that assigns the users logon name to the profile folder.
Someone created a user account and incorrectly named the profile path so the folder name and user logon name do not match. I am trying to find out who owns the folder without taking ownership of the folder (by default, we did not include Administrators in
NTFS permissions).
Is there a way I can find out what the user logon name for the profile folder is without taking ownership of the folder?
Thanks in advance.

if there is a chance that the user/owner is still configured with this folder as profile attribute, check the profile attributes of you users for the user account with the matching profile folder attribute.
check the script gallery, or similar, for a script which will list out all user account profile attributes to a text file, then search/browse that text file for the matching folder name -> user account.
I have some older scripts tucked away which do ADSI queries in VBscript, to dump out the home_folder and profile_folder attributes for every user in our AD. This helps when we are re-shuffling home_folders or profile_folders from one server to another, etc.

Renaming Ad logon name not reflecting during Mac login

Hello TP,
UPN would not solve my issue.
Though I have found that if I delete the user in system preference and keep the home folder I am able to login. But it create a new profile, are you aware of any command to remap the old profile to new renamed account, so the profile,permissions and other options do not change.
Many Thanks

but it is not working
please help me

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to set "peoples or groups" field with current user "login name" in SharePoint list form using JavaScript.
To set "peoples or groups" field with current user "login name”, you can use the below code:
<script src="http://ajax.aspnetcdn.com/ajax/jquery/jquery-1.9.0.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function SetPickerValue(pickerid, key, dispval) {
var xml = '<Entities Append="False" Error="" Separator=";" MaxHeight="3">';
xml = xml + PreparePickerEntityXml(key, dispval);
xml = xml + '</Entities>';
EntityEditorCallback(xml, pickerid, true);
function PreparePickerEntityXml(key, dispval) {
return '<Entity Key="' + key + '" DisplayText="' + dispval + '" IsResolved="True" Description="' + key + '"><MultipleMatches /></Entity>';
function GetCurrentUserAndInsertIntoUserField() {
var context = new SP.ClientContext.get_current();
var web = context.get_web();
this._currentUser = web.get_currentUser();
context.load(this._currentUser);
context.executeQueryAsync(Function.createDelegate(this, this.onSuccess),
Function.createDelegate(this, this.onFailure));
function onSuccess(sender, args) {
SetPickerValue('ctl00_m_g_99f3303a_dffa_4436_8bfa_3511d9ffddc0_ctl00_ctl05_ctl01_ctl00_ctl00_ctl04_ctl00_ctl00_UserField', this._currentUser.get_loginName(),
this._currentUser.get_title());
function onFaiure(sender, args) {
alert(args.get_message() + ' ' + args.get_stackTrace());
ExecuteOrDelayUntilScriptLoaded(GetCurrentUserAndInsertIntoUserField, "sp.js");
</script>

Hello Vijay,
If you are at all interested in a 3rd party application to make your life a bit easier getting stats on your users, you could check out Click Stream by Sweetlets.
Click Stream uses the Usermanagement (UME) API to get more information about the user, groups, roles, LDAP attributes etc. and offers you the ability to filter this information in nearly any report at the click of a button.
Click Stream also uses the PCD API to get information about the pages your users are visiting too.
In the very near future Click Stream will also have iView recording to monitor iViews, telling which iViews have been clicked, etc.
Here are some reviews on the SAP EcoHub from people who have used it: http://ecohub.sdn.sap.com/irj/ecohub/solutions/clickstream
Please just let me know if you have any question or if you are open to test drive Click Stream. We will certainly help as best as we can.
Good luck.
