User Profile (issues when NetBIOS name is different from FQDN)

Problem:

After installing user profile and sync with active directory, all the users prefix is changed to "corp/".

For any profile which you click on "Edit My Profile", even without making any changes, the prefix will change to "NTDOMAIN\".

Reason:

HBF adctive directory domain name and DNS name is different:​

Solution:

• First, delete the AD connections from the user profile manage page.
• then, run this powershell command

Get-SPServiceApplication

$upsa = Get-SPServiceApplication -Id <GUID of User Profile Service Application>
$upsa.NetBIOSDomainNamesEnabled = 1
$upsa.Update() 

Replace <GUID of User Profile Service Application> with the service guid above.

• Restart IIS and OWSTimer
• Recreate the AD connection
• Run full import twice
• Run incremental sync
