Re: possible bug report re: (malformed?) internet addresses
Interesting. Host can look it up: bash-2.05b$ host mr-chips-.deviantart.com mr-chips-.deviantart.com has address 69.28.181.43 But the host name is itself invalid. From RFC 1035: The labels must follow the rules for ARPANET host names. They must start with a letter, end with a letter or digit, and have as interior characters only letters, digits, and hyphen. My guess is Windows is actually munging it, when it would be better to return an error.

$ ping "mr-chips-.deviantart.com" ping: cannot resolve mr-chips-.deviantart.com: Unknown server error $ ping "etc-etc-etc.deviantart.com" PING etc-etc-etc.deviantart.com (69.28.181.43): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 69.28.181.43: icmp_seq=0 ttl=50 time=108.127 ms At first it may seem logical to point the blame to the server, after noting "Unknown server error," however, I am perfectly able to connect to this address on a Windows machine. The problem is reproducible with any address which has a "-" before a "."
