Module Creates Username but no First/Last Name

I got the module to work on our intranet and had no real problems setting it up. However, the module does not pull the FirstName or LastName from the directory. When I go to the Users table, there is a value for UserID, Username, IsSuperUser, Email and UpdatePassword. No DisplayName is created either; however, I'm not too worried as I am willing to modify the AddUser stored procedure mentioned elsewhere.

Anyone know why the module would not extract the First or Last Name? I created an LDAP query using classic ASP to verify I can pull the givenName (FirstName) and sn (LastName) from our domain controllers but I can't do it with this module.

Thanks.

I'm having the exact same problem on a fresh install, 4.3.4. Enabled ADSI authentication, logins work, but no user info is populated.

Re: Module Creates Username but no First/Last Name

After some experimentation and installing DNN 4.03, it's clear to me this module does NOT work in DNN 4.3.4. I know it's not a core module, but if someone could actually get this module to work properly in DNN 4.3.4, it would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Module Creates Username but no First/Last Name

It would be great to get this to work. I have over 800 users that will be using my portal and I would hate to have to manually enter the Display Name field for all of these users. Is there a workaround that I could use to concantonate the First Name and Last Name fields to create the Display Name?

Re: Module Creates Username but no First/Last Name

I have the same problem.

UserName and firstname are not created. Then these use can't upload something in reposirity module because the username is empty and empty is not permit ! Of course in repository it is a read only field...
