Can't connect with user using alternate UPN Suffix

Posted on by JDHannan

We have a hosted environment with multiple clients running on it. The domain is "host"

However, there are multiple clients that have users with the same first and last name, so we can't set them all up in our AD as host\firstname.lastname and so we set up alternate UPN Suffixes for them so they can log into CRM as firstname.lastname@companyname.com (basically, their email address)

We have custom code that allows users to log in using their CRM credentials and while this worked fine using CrmConnection but we've now switched to Xrm Tooling and this does not work.

They can log in as host\firstname.lastname but this is problematic for whoever is the second John Smith and would have to remember to sign in as host\john.smith2 or something.

Thanks

I tried using the Plugin Registration Tool and it does connect successfully. However, I don't know how it instantiates the connection so I can't do what it is doing.
