Usernames with $ sign

I’m just installed 3.7.0. I’m using LDAP to create my users and groups. I have a few users that show up with a “$” in the name, for example john$@openfire. This happened in the previous version I was using which was 3.6.4. I used the patch to fix it, but it was suppose to be fixed on version 3.7.0. Is anyone else out there having this problem?

These could be samba machine accounts ? I’m not sure of openfire allows it but you should probably be able to filter those results with some creative ldap query ?

Here I am again.

according to this http://www.igniterealtime.org/builds/openfire/docs/latest/documentation/ldap-gui de.html you can use ldap.searchFilter for additional user filtering.

I’m already using a search filter. Any other suggestions?
