Special Character in domain name

lauro7 — Wed, 25 Jun 2014 13:00:32 GMT

Hi,

I have a domain with special character "&" in the NetBios domain name. In the FQDN name this character has been substituted by "e".

By user-identification, PAN discover the users, but some have the "&" character in domain name and some have "e" character in domain name. Then the user's identification doesn't operate well. There is a workaround for this problem ?

Thanks.
