Hi Jonathan,
I am working in a test environment where I have dummy accounts in AD and OpenLDAP, I happen to see that AD schema has userPrincipalname attribute and this is missing in OpenLDAP, The application I am trying with is strictly using UPN names
In other words, it is an AD-only application, not an LDAP-compliant application. I would recommend you make the vendor/developers aware of this and ask them to support the IETF-standardised protocol and not a specific broken implementation, or not use the software.
If you want/need something that supports the brokenness/non-compliance of AD, your best bet is probably Samba4.
