This is a common misunderstanding. The only valid characters in
hostnames to be used on the global internet are letters, numbers and the
dash character, "-". Underscores are not valid, at all, period. I realize
that the RFC's don't seem to be clear on this point, however you can rest
assured that such is the case.
Good luck,
