User Portal Authentication with Active Directory errors for specific users

Good afternoon everyone!

 

I have a strange issues which I have theories about, but would appreciate what your thoughts might be on it.

Short story, setting up SSL VPN with back end active directory authentication. Setup a new user, non-admin, logged into the user portal fine. This was my test to make sure everything was working fine.

Rolled out to everyone but some users had issues, the live log showed an error rather than a deny, so I made a new security group in AD, put everyone in it and then triggered the pre-fetch. I know I don't need to do this but wanted to see what it would do.

Here comes the errors.

Prefetch Log for a user.

My theories are, some form of corruption but I can't figure out if its in the active directory or the UTM, or it's something in the AD attributes as the 4 people this happened to are essentially the 4 founding people of the company 20 or so years ago and been the in AD since 2003 server days.

 

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

 

Cheers

Ian
