Cause
There is a conflict object in the "foreignsecurityprincipal" container, that looks like this:
SID for contoso\XUser: S-1-5-21-21330434097-182411894-1085159986-21628
Conflict object:
dn: CN=S-1-5-21-21330434097-182411894-1085159986-21628\0ACNF:1890a367-d7e5-4a6d-9479-cb98afe92812,CN=ForeignSecurityPrincipals,DC=contoso,DC=com
Without conflict:
dn: CN=S-1-5-21-21330434097-182411894-1085159986-21628,CN=ForeignSecurityPrincipals,DC=contoso,DC=com
When you look at the “whenchanged” and foremost “whencreated” attributes of the objects, you should see they are very close together. This is the sign of a Active Directory “name conflict”. That is resolved by renaming one of the objects.
Resolution
The objects have the same “objectsid” attribute which is the problem. They should have the same attribute values for most operationally relevant attributes. So you can delete the object with the name conflict from an Active Directory Administration tool.

You can avoid the problem in the future when you have the CRM Administrator use a specific Domain Controller.
You can add a registry entry for that:
Location: HKey_Local_Machine\Software\Microsoft\MSCRM
Key Type: String
Name: PreferredDC
Value: (type the name of the DC)
