User with username [JBoss] already exists, but is not linked to provider [RedHat Active Directory]

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • When changed "Username LDAP attribute" from cn to userPrincipalName in LDAP of User Federation. For example, cn is 'jboss' while userPrincipalName is jboss@redhat.com.
    When I enable Kerberos integration with LDAP, user ID is retrieved as 'jboss' which does not match with jboss@redhat.com and cause the account cannot be login by Kerberos.

  • When enabled "Allow Kerberos authentication" within LDAP user federation provider encountering below error logs.
