Duplicate PC names in enterprise console

I've noticed after upgrading the Enterprise Console to version 4.5 and AV to 9.5 that duplicate PC names have started appearing.  This normally happens after a PC's AV has either not upgraded properly or has stopped updating so i've uninstalled and it and then redeployed it down.  One of the PC names will say its connected & managed (although not properly as the 'up to date' colum is blank and you can't deploy any policies down)  whilst the other will be greyed out.

I've tried deleting both entries in the Enterprise Console in an attempt for the AD sync to sort it but they both re-appear again.  Is this a known issue with the 4.5 upgrade?

  • I am having the same problem.  We are deploying some virtual machines using VMWare, but deploy sophos after the machine is created, up and running, and joined to the domain with a unique SID (we are also running wuauclt /resetauthorization to reset the UID for windows updates).

    But I'm also having the same issue with physical machines that have been formated, and restored using a completely clean install (OEM Windows XP SP3 disk).  If I use the same name while joinging the machine to the domain, I get a duplicate entry in Enterprise Console.  There are no duplicates in AD.
