How to recrate:

• run portal instance portalA with vLDAP plugin to serve as LDAP provider
• add several users to portalA
• in portal instance portalB in portal-ext.properties create entry ldap.import.user.sync.strategy=uuid
• run portal instance portalB and set to authenticate and import users via LDAP

PortalB will import users but uuids won't match between portalA and portalB. Each subsequent LDAP synchronization will end up with bunch of stack trace errors which will complain that screenname constraint is violated.

Expected behaviour:

• both instances portalA and portalB have equal UUID values for one unique user.
