Should test the validity of domain names

Open bortzmeyer opened this issue 10 years ago • 1 comments

There are currently in the blockchain some domains which are valid according to the DNS but not according to the stricter LDH rule of host names. BIND, by default, reject them and therefore cannot load .BIT :

Jan 18 17:29:17 ludwigVII named[23967]: /etc/bind/dotbit/db.namecoin.bit:15421: jdt_test.bit: bad owner name (check-names) Jan 18 17:29:39 ludwigVII named[23967]: /etc/bind/dotbit/db.namecoin.bit:22629: andrey_vasilyev.bit: bad owner name (check-names)

It would be good if namescan.php checked these names and have the ability to filter them out.

until that's fixed, I use the output of named-checkzone to filter out the bad lines https://github.com/puggan/NamecoinToBind/commit/3512e7a477196a1800f928ec80e4f7a4d3fa06d2
