User Profile sync with User Information List

sharepoint.stackexchange https://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/6976

Question

Do these two lists have a syncing mechanism? I know of the User Profiles being synced via your data store, but does the User Profile sync with the User Information List? If so, what settings drive that synchronization?

I've found this link: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en/sharepoint2010general/thread/c69069af-9422-436a-9ac8-8f996291de03 And also a contradicting link: http://blog-sharepoint.blogspot.com/2010/08/user-information-list-not-synchronised.html

Which one is right?

Was it helpful?

I'm pretty sure this article explains exactly what's going on. I'm going to give this a whirl. User Profile Sync Issues

OTHER TIPS

Sounds like SharePoint AD Sync can tackle this issue pretty well. However, the article you referred above does provide a very neat solution.
