ADAM gives you two attributes that can be used in a bind operation as the
user name that you can set directly, userPrincipalName and displayName. ADAM
also doesn't require a UPN style name in the userPrincipalName attribute
() so you can put any arbitrary value in there as long as it
is unique.

Thus, you should be able to effectively give the users two arbitrary
username values that can be used for bind auth by using both of these
attributes together.

I hope that helps!
