Symptoms

Oracle Virtual Directory (OVD) 10g or 11g, e.g., 11.1.1.6.0, providing a single LDAP interface to two Microsoft (MS) Active Directory (AD) domains in the backend.

A user might have an account in each AD domain with the same samaccountname, uid, CN.

When issuing the same LDAP query based on filter uid=<username>; one OVD Server (i.e., Production) returns only one record, whereas another Test OVD Server returns both (two entries).

But only one of them from OVD Prod.

Which configuration difference between PROD and Test is causing this different behavior?
