Description

Hi,

We use configuration synchronisation between two pfSense boxes to sync a list of firewall aliases and rules. These objects include description strings with special characters (mainly French letters with accents).

On the backup node, those characters are always replaced by a space.

This issue does not exist with the backup/restore feature, which embeds special chars as HTML entities. However, it seems the configuration sync engine is unable to handle them properly on config update.
