Yikes! That's disturbing. Domain names are supposed to be unique keys.

Not sure what you're after there.
Windows allows underscores in the hostname. Linux also allows

DNS != Internet
The protocol part of DNS can handle an underscore just fine. Labels
can include any character except a dot (.) or ASCII NUL.

DNS-SD, DKIM, ADSP, and a whole bunch of other parts of the greater
internet infrastructure think so--actually, they depend on it.
But "allowed" is a long way away from "in general good taste".

That's good to hear. A year and a half or so, it was 72 hours of

Hi all - I have a question regarding DNS. I'll even use specific

Currently, Code Energy manages it's own DNS by running bind on our

ns1.code-energy.com and ns2.code-energy.com. If you do a whois on

I'm drawing a blank here. For a slave DNS server, what should the
