Josh Cooper commented on PUP-10096   Re: Parameters of resources are base64 encoded in puppetdb if created as raw byte strings by ruby functions From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punycode: While the Domain Name System (DNS) technically supports arbitrary sequences of octets in domain name labels, the DNS standards recommend the use of the LDH subset of ASCII conventionally used for host names, and require that string comparisons between DNS domain names should be case-insensitive. Given that I'd recommend coercing the name as US-ASCII not UTF-8: result = Resolv.new.getname(args[0]) result.force_encoding(Encoding::US_ASCII) result.scrub!
