Splunk CAC Authentication not working

[xwill13]

Hello,

I am attempting to configure splunk to allow users to authenticate via CAC card using LDAP. However when I attempt to log in I get forwarded to a page that simply says "Unauthorized". This suggested to me that splunk is successfully reading my card, but rejecting my credentials for some reason. 

Checking splunkd.log shows that whenever I attempt to log in i get the message "Account John D Johnson does not exist". 

Looking in active directory users and computers the account splunk is searching for from the card does seem to not exist, however I'm able to log in to my computer with it, so it must exist in some capacity.

My thoughts are that splunk is searching for the account with a field that does not match the field it is looking for in AD. Is there any way to tell splunk what value it should be trying to match on the CAC card in AD?

I tried changing the values of userNameAttribute in authorize.conf but it seems to have had no affect. My config files are below.
