 Customers using SME’s AD Proxy program to communicate with their LDAP system may experience a problem when trying to import users manually.  When the problem occurs an error message saying “AD proxy: Active Directory Unknown error”  will be displayed.  This problem will only occur if the File Fabric has been upgraded from an older version to v1808 or v1901. The problem can be resolved by reentering the LDAP Base DN on the org. admin’s Auth Systems setup page.
