 We follow the RFC guidelines. I can't remember the RFC number on top  
 of my head, but hostnames can only contain numbers, letters and the  
 hyphen (except in the beginning of the hostname). Other characters are  
 not allowed.
 
 This PR can be closed because this is not a problem with FreeBSD.
