Authenticate using a description field
Can I authenticate Windows Server 2003 SP2 logins using a description field? For example: Username: j01234567 Description: john.doe I would like to login as john.doe instead of j01234567. Is this possible? Jason, MCP Comptool Solutions LLC

No, it is not possible to use the description. Users can either logon with their "pre-Windows 2000 logon" name, or their User Principal Name (labeled "User logon name" on the "Account" tab of ADUC). Richard MuellerMVP ADSI
