Duplicate unmanaged machines when AD syncs

We're experiencing an issue with some machines, after an AD sync occures there is a dupelicate unmanaged machine created.  Even if I delete the unmanaged machine, next AD sync it shows up again.  I found this article that said the bug was fixed in version 4.7 but we are on version 5.2

This is happening with probably 100 machines.

  • I ran the query from the forum you linked.  There are far more duplicate names than I thought, over 1000 returns from that query, some of which are not only doubled but tripled or quadrupled.  This doesn't make any sence to me.

    Is there any reason this would happen?  When machines are removed from the domain do we need to somehow remove them from Sophos?  I also noticed some of the duplicate machines have the same machineID while others don't.  I can't find any link here.

    How would I go about deleting all of these, would it have to be a manual process?
