Known issues
Client
If you use SDS for C&M with SDS Enterprise 9.2.5, the automatic protection of folders will not work. It is highly recommended not to install this SDS Enterprise version. Version 9.2.5 SP1 fixes the issue.
If you use SDS for C&M with SDS Enterprise, you cannot log in to SDS for C&M using several accounts within the same Windows session.
The SDS for C&M client does not send to the server any logs regarding the application of the policy, even when the policy has been applied.
If you close an SDS for C&M window (e.g., protection, sharing, etc.) during an LDAP query that returns many results, you will not be able to open another window until after the query has expired.
Whenever you delete a user from the local directory, SDS for C&M will not find the user immediately through an LDAP query. You need to open the window one more time (protection, sharing, etc.) and look for the user again.
Unicode characters are not supported for searches in the local address book. Only LDAP searches allow the use of Unicode characters.
If you are using SDS for C&M with SDS Enterprise, the interface remains frozen whenever you log off from SDS for C&M immediately after having modified access to a folder that contains files. This freeze happens due to the verification of certificates. Restart the workstation to resolve this issue.
When automatic file protection is enabled, the "Save as" function cannot be used in the following cases:
- When saving Microsoft Office files in a synchronized space such as OneDrive or SharePoint.
- When saving Libre Office files in any type of synchronized space.
After a certificate renewal, the new certificate is not automatically taken into account when editing a protected file. You need to run the wizard again to manage access to the file in order to apply the new certificate.
