As Mark Andrews pointed out in a private message, this is not a BIND issue. It's a resolver issue. The resolver does enforce the RFC limiting the characters used for host names in accordance with the RFC. BIND will handle anything. A big issue is that ICANN appears to have authorized internationalized names and those appear certain to break LOTS of things. But this PR is probably not correct as BIND does adhere to the RFC. RFC952 still holds sway as confirmed in RFC1123. R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) Ernest O.
