Use of underscore names does impose some limitations. Occasionally those limitations are noteworthy for real-world operations, but experience across a range of applications so far has not created any show-stoppers. One of the more serious problems about using the underscore construct is that arguments against it sometimes are based on an insistence for pure-and-complete original DNS capabilities, rather than attending to the real-world utility. It would be nice to have the construct impose no additional constraints, but 'nice' isn't the same as 'necessary', when evaluating pragmatic trade-offs. In other words, the specific technical limitations being noted are unfortunate but (so far) not serious. d/ -- Dave Crocker Brandenburg InternetWorking bbiw.net
