RFC 2181 ยง11 on Name Syntax Implementations of the DNS protocols must not place any restrictions on the labels that can be used. In particular, DNS servers must not refuse to serve a zone because it contains labels that might not be acceptable to some DNS client programs. A DNS server may be configurable to issue warnings when loading, or even to refuse to load, a primary zone containing labels that might be considered questionable, however this should not happen by default. anaand tested and says that > BIND and NSD are correct here: they just load the zone (BIND needs to > be configured to do so, but it provides the option). > If you still have any issues with the zone, please send me the source > zone file for investigation. attached randy
