The DNS module of Gosa allow the system administrator to insert invalid
DNS host names, which in turn break bind9.  See
<URL: http://bugs.debian.org/710362 > for the details, where ldap2zone
would generate two invalid DNS zones causing named to no longer hand out
DNS information.  Two exaples are known so far.  One was a hostname with
underscore in it, the other was a MX entry without the priority number
in it.  Neither should be allowed by the GUI, and the user trying to
enter such illegal values should be told to change them before saving it
into LDAP and breaking DNS.
