Sorry for very late response,
I'm not really understand your issue, the module still support UPN login as same as previous version

We have a situation where whe have a large domain partitioned into virtual domains using different UPN extentsions.  This allows for the duplication of the user name portion of the logon id (in front of the @) across different UPN extensions.  But, to make this work, the pre-Windows 2000 logon id has to have a user name portion that is unique in the domain.  What we have found (in 2.0.12 as well) is that if the username portion of the UPN logon id does not match the NT4 compatible username, authentication via UPN logon fails.  We addressed this previously by making the necessary changes to the 2.0.12 source.

For instance, the items below represent 3 different users in the same domain:

User1, John Smith:
UPN logon: jsmith@abc.com
PreWin2K logon: DOMAIN\jsmith.abc
 
User2, also John Smith:
UPN logon: jsmith@xyz.com
PreWin2K logon: DOMAIN\jsmith.xyz
User3, also John Smith:
UPN logon: jsmith@DOMAIN.com
PreWin2K logon: DOMAIN\jsmith

 

In these 2 examples, using the 3.0.13 auth module and using UPN logons fails authentication for all but User3.

I understood your issue now. 
Unfortunally, the module currently support 3rd format of UPN login only.

Our target is including Active Directory into the the next release of DNN.

At the moment you could use the TTT Authentication module, download it at my website http://www.tttcompany.com 

Tam 

I downloaded the modules from there.  Are they compatible with DNN 3.1?  

I followed your documentation and tried to set up the form authentication against LDAP and not very successful. I have some issues:

1. The userid that you have mentioned in the documentation what permission should it have to the AD information? should it have admin access?

2. What does the following  mean?

Accessing Global Catalog:
OK
Checking Root Domain:
OK
Accessing LDAP:
FAIL
Access all domains in the network:
Could not access LDAP to obtain domain entries

3. I have a news feed module on my home page which gets the feed from another module in my website.  When I turn on the windows authentication I get the following error on the feed: News Feed Is Not Available At This Time. Error message:Too many automatic redirections attempted.  How to correct this?

Early response appreciated.

Hi Vveena, I'm not Tam, but I will try to help you regarding your pretty rush question.
The problem is in your IIS permissions for dnn site. So open IIS, right click on dnn site and choose Directory Security tab. In it, select Edit in Anonymus Access and Authentication Control. Under Anonymus Access write the user name who has wright to access (at  least read) the infos from AD (form must be domain_name\user_name). Write password as well and make sure Integrated windows authentication check box is checked.

Now find (you are still in IIS) file Logon.aspx (it is it DesktopModules/Authentication subfolder) and check the permissions for it (the same as described before) but now desable Anonymus Access and again make sure Integrated windows authentication check box is checked.

And finally, if you are using XP as web server, open your web.config file and remove comment marks (uncomment) for line
<identity impersonate="true"/>

That's all. It should work now. There will bi no more errors like you mentioned in your post. BTW, Tam's module works realy fine on DNN3.1.1 as well as DNN3.1. I'm running it on XP and on WinServer 2003 with many other modules. No problem at all. Maybe, we have luck but we read the documentations very carefully several times before using the module. Documentations could be better,  but what could we do (except to help Tam). We are looking forward to AD module and DNN3.2.

Hope that helped. Regards, Nenad
