Office 365: OKTA prompt not displaying is causing disconnect issue with Outlook client
Our organization was migrated to Office 365. We've encountered some issues with the remote users and Office 2013 & 2016. Outlook tends to disconnect from the Exchange Server and at times is suck at "trying to connect". We notice that the OKTA log in prompt does not display the username and password box, but rather a blank box. We've been having to manually log in to our organization's OKTA site, close Outlook, sign out of the Office suite (Word, Excel, PowerPoint...); log back into the OKTA site and relaunch Outlook. Then the OKTA prompt is displayed and Outlook connects to the exchange server. Again, we believe that somehow OKTA is losing its authentication process causing Outlook to disconnect; not being able to verify authorization and authenticate our remote users. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

    I had a user with this exact issue. Turned out their UPN was another domain user's account account name.
