Not sure what you're after there. Windows allows underscores in the hostname. Linux also allows underscores in the hostname. There is no rule that says your hostname has to be exposed to the Internet. Windows 2000 and later warn you that things will break if you use underscores, and include options to reject them entirely. Microsoft does use underscores to prefix the DNS labels for SRV records, but since *the RFC says to do that*, I think that's a good thing. (I detest FUD, even if it's aimed at a target I also dislike.) -- Ben _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
