Hi,

When setting up SharePoint User Profile Sync, the default Join attribute is:

User profile property	AD DS attribute
SPS-DistinguishedName	dn

Can we change this using the MIISClient to something like "employeeID" or "samaccountname"?

Or will SharePoint override our settings and revert it to the original Join criteria?

Thanks,

SK

Then you could add a join rule since your intent is for it to be temporary. Although as long as the records are still joined in FIM the DN changing won't affect it as FIM uses the AD GUID and then internal GUIDs it generates for each object and keeps track of its own linkages.
