Software Manufacturers
Hi all, I am using the latest version of SDP (8003), and I am having a problem with "Manufacturers" (mandatory field). These are recognized when a workstation is scanned and automatically added to the database. But it turns out that software manufacturers not always use a standard name, so you will end up with something like "Adobe Systems", "Adobe Inc." "Adobe Incorporated", all of them being the same! and having software linked to them. SDP 8 does not allow to change/edit the name of the manufacturer

Hi, My company has recently got some proper CA certs. I've gone through the process detailed in the FAQ several times, following the directions to the letter, and just can't seem get things working. I created the keystore file and sent a CSR to my cert authority (StartCom). Note that StartCom requires minimum 2048 lenth SHA1 encrypted CSR's, so I simply added "-sigalg DSA -length 2048".

Saving Attachments - IE9
One of our Techs is currently trialling IE9 and has come across a problem when attempting to download attachments. Basically, a prompt comes up asking if you want to save the file however, this appears to be a background link rather than the filename. From here, you are unable to cancel the request and trying to save the file does nothing. If you change the filename, this will then allow the file to begin saving which fails, but allows you to close the dialog box. We have tried this with numerous

Deleting Categories - Cannot delete a sub-category
I have manually deleted tickets relating to a particular sub-category, we have no problems in our database and only 4 changes, none of which use that sub-category. Thsi sub-category has no items. As far as I can tell Solutions use their own categorization hierarchy - am I missing some place categories are used?
