Serverscheck Sensors - Version 6 - Issiue with DHCP /w DNS

Device Info:
Hardware Version : Release 5.1
Firmware Version : Release 6.00
Device: SensorGateway v5


Hey Guys,

we have the above SensorGateway in our Serverroom.
The reporting values of temperature and humidity are correct but i have here some sort of strange issiue.

We want to try to make every device accessible with DNS.
Unfortantly, there seems to be a bug within the returnvalue of the NetBios/Device name.
We are using as DHCP and DNS Windows Server 2012.
After the SensorGateway is configured as a DHCP Device, it gets normal a DHCP Address with correct lease time.
I don't know why but the returnvalue of the NetBiosName appends some "whitespaces".

E.g:

domain: example.com
devname: sensor0001

expected output: "sensor0001.example.com"
actual output: "sensor0001 .example.com"

within this whitespaces windows dont make any DNS entrys for this device, so i had to make the A Records and PTR Records on my own.

Is there a possibility to fix that problem?

Thx alot,

Matthias

Thank you for reporting the issue. It was passed onto our development team.

Hi Matthias,

Regarding the return of the NetBiosName if the name is not 15 characters long it will be padded with white spaces as this is Microsoft standards.
