Summary

Item lookup and communication are working properly when trying to sync DSM users with Active Directory. However, when a group is selected for syncing, the wizard shows “No new users will be added to the system”.

Details

The issue occurs because the DSM filters out accounts that do not have a "userPrincipalName" attribute. This is the attribute representing the account name of the user in email form, such as admin@domain.local, compliant with RFC822.

To resolve the issue:

Open Active Directory Users and Computers.
Go to the Username > Properties > Accounts tab.
Set a value for the User logon name field.
Click Apply > Save.
