Hi, IDN is not optional on the internet today.
The IANA is publishing several IDN top level domains: http://www.iana.org/domains/root/db As it currently stands, I am having a difficult time using Ubuntu as a professional internet operator at an ISP, because my only choice is hacks like this: reaper@silverstar:~$ dig ns $(idn2 한국) On CentOS 6.5, the query is simple: jgs@whmdev:~$ dig ns 한국 The man page of dig has the same message for at least 2 years, staing it's a compile time option. Please compile it into the next version of this package. Is there any reason not to build dig with IDN support? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to bind9 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/175316 Title: no IDN in nslookup and host To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bind9/+bug/175316/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
