Hi all,
in UI Options can the personalized greeting be configured
"Display user's full name (if available) or username on their welcome page."
Whe I activiate this option, I only can see the username on welcome page.
We use MS Active Directory as authentication server.
Doese anyone what I have to do that the full name is shown?
In AD the full name is available for the specific user.
That is an interesting check box. i have never been able to get it to work unless I am authenticating a user against the local DB. It works fine then. If you are using LDAP you can add the "name" value to the server catalog and then create a custom notification message at the bottom of the UI Options page - something like:
Howdy <userAttr.name>
Works just fine. Never figured out how to get display name to show up either way if directly using AD as the Auth server.
Thanks for your reply.
The filed "name" is already available in server catalog.
I can also see in policy trace that this field is deliverde from the LDAP server.
Unfortunately it is not presented on the welcome page.
I am not talking about using the option "display users full name" - as I said I can never get that to work except with local auth users.
If you enable the custom notification box slightly below that option and enter in a value as I refered to in my previous post that will work just fine. I do that regularily.
