--- Comment #2 from Dave Clifford <cliffor...@gmail.com> ---
If this is the behavior - converting the hostname to lowercase - then do I
correct my problem by defining and using only lower case letters in the
hostname?

The issue I reported as a bug (id=424943) was due to the behavior of the
app in changing the case of the host name and then not finding a match.

It's fine if the code does this, but some notation should be made in the
user's guide that this is the expected behavior.
I would not go to the trouble (and should not be expected) to read an RFC
to determine that a hostname will be converted to lowercase.

Let me know if I should -  or if you can, close the bug with a reason.
