I known about non-printable characters in hosnames. These characters is national characters (russian alphas, I from Russia). Hostname with national characters is produced by MS Windows from netbios-name of computer and this algorithm can't be changed by user. (Programmers Microsoft do not observe standards :( too quickly.) I can't change names of all computers in local network: some computers is notebooks of guests. Therefore I suggest to add an exception of such lines of a conclusion logcheck Thanks Stas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
