According to RFC-952 the first character of a host- or domain-name may not be a number, dash or hyphen. It must be a letter. See: http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc952 Hence BlueOnyx doesn't allow a naming convention where a host- or domain-name starts with a number. However, in recent years domain name registries have allowed certain RFC violating domain names (9gag.com anyone? ;-), so this RFC may have been overtaken by events or bad practices somewhere upstream. > Is there any way to go around this problem? You could edit this file: /usr/sausalito/schemas/basetypes.schema It has the following regular expressions for "fqdn" (fully qualified domain names), hostnames and domain names: <typedef name="fqdn" type="re" data="^([A-Za-z0-9][A-Za-z0-9\-]*\\.)+[A-Za-z]+$" /> <typedef name="hostname" type="re" data="^[A-Za-z0-9][A-Za-z0-9\-]*(\\.[A-Za-z0-9][A-Za-z0-9\-]*)*$" /> <typedef name="domainname" type="re" data="^[A-Za-z0-9][A-Za-z0-9\-]*([\\.][A-Za-z0-9][A-Za-z0-9\-]*)*$" /> After modifying the regular expressions to your liking, restart CCEd for the change to take effect: /etc/init.d/cced.init restart -- With best regards Michael Stauber _______________________________________________ Blueonyx mailing list [email protected] http://mail.blueonyx.it/mailman/listinfo/blueonyx
