Hello Community,
I installed and use the openfire server with customized spark (corporate design). We are testing now and want to deploy spark for the whole company (nearly 5.000 users without sales reps). I connect the openfire server to our corporate Active Directory via ldap.
Now my question is: Can I change the standard name of a user in the spark roster to ldap field "givenName" or "displayName" or somethinig similiar? Because the "samAccountName" is good for userid/username but ugly for a contact list. Of course you can change the name after adding to roster but it would be nice to see the real name at first time you add the user.
My attempts so far:
1. vcard settings: I try the vcard settings to change the standard name in the spark roster for new contacts (nickname, FN, ...) => without success for the roster entry.
2. server settings: I try to change the system properties (ldap.nameField,...) => without success for the roster entry.
I've searched the forum already but didn't find the correct answer for my issue. Maybe I have to configure something special in spark? Can anybody help me?
Thank you very much,
Benni
