LDAP Name Issues

    I’m having issues getting names formatted properly after pulling them from my LDAP server. It’s not so much an issue with the plugin as it is that the LDAP server spits out the name in a strange way. Here’s what the LDAP server has available: (I’ve censored some information)

    # ######, ldap.######.edu
dn: role=######,dc=ldap,dc=######,dc=edu
postOfficeBox: ############
displayName: Last SU, First Middle
cn: Last SU, First Middle
title: Student
objectClass: person
employeeType: student
primaryUidDn: uid=USERNAME,dc=accounts,dc=######,dc=edu
primaryUid: USERNAME
mail: email@#######.edu
ou: BA
uid: USERNAME

    The data ends up getting put into WordPress as seen in this image.
    What I want to know is if it would be possible to make it pull the email, and if it can properly parse the name to pull the appropriate first and last name.

    Thanks in advance!

    Solved part of my issue. Changed the code in cas-maestro.php in the relevant section to the following:

    //$exploded_name = explode(' ', $user_realname);
//$firstname = $exploded_name[0];
//$lastname = end($exploded_name);
$exploded_name = explode(',', $user_realname);
$exploded_first = explode(' ', $exploded_name[1]);
$firstname = $exploded_first[0];
$exploded_last = explode(' ', $exploded_name[0]);
$lastname = $exploded_last[0];

    And now it properly parses the names just how I want.
    Now I just need to figure out the email issue.
