I can tell you which line to change in the source code if you want to try.
Yes please
In MibIISw.java, change line 275 from:
if (!nb.getSysname().startsWith(netboxSysname)) {
to:
if (!nb.getSysname().trim().toLower().startsWith(netboxSysname.trim().toLower())) {
Then recompile gDD and let me know if it helps.
