OK, figured it out. APM log rule was LogonPage-->LDAPAuth-->Allow.

 

 

The LDAP fields are not brought over unless a LDAPquery is used, so modifying the rule to:

 

 

LogonPage-->LDAPAuth-->LDAPQuery---> Allow.

 

 

Fixed the problem. I didn't need the LDAPquery here, but by inserting it (member of domain users) we get all the LDAP fields back, so it was just a process problem. Doh !
