Hi,
I've an environment contain NetBIOS name with "." example abc.com as netbios name
And Azure AD Connect (On-Premise) doesn't support Netbios names with ".", is there other work around, so that i can sync users to Azure Portal.
Using on-premises forests or domains by using "dotted" (name contains a period ".") NetBIOS names isn't supported.
@RussellAng-0425 I wanted to follow up and know if the below responses helped in answering your query. If it did, please do not forget to accept the appropriate response as Answer.
To be supported, no.
Domain Name Rename is possible unless you have an Exchange Server installed in the forest:

or move to a new forest:

Thanks for the information, there is on-premise exchange 2010. As i will not recommend to do the rename for netbios name. Will there be tool able to sync AD accounts to Azure or O365, which still possible to leverage on it?
