Hi All,
    Can anyone let me know if "_" (underscore) in an hostname is valid
or not? I am not able to fine the right rfc that would give me the
naming conventions. I checked up in rfcs #1034 and #1035. They do talk
about domain naming conventions but am not sure if it would apply for
naming hosts too.

Thanks in Advance,
Ashwin
