LDAP Authentication requires "Common Name" rather than username?

840171Apr 19 2011
I'm using the built in LDAP authentication using the DN string:

CN=%LDAP_USER%,CN=Users,DC=company,DC=co,DC=uk

This only works is the user enters their common name and password eg "Bob Smith", "password"

I would have expected (and need) this to work using their login name (which maps to sAMAccountName) eg "smith_b" "password".

Using the LDAP test tool in Apex 4 - it only workds using "Bob Smith" not "smith_b".

I've tried the same directly in plsql using simple_bind_s with the same results.

Any ideas?
