Hey, that won't work. Underscore is not a legitimate character in a
hostname.

I'm serious about this, by the way. It may appear to work sometimes with
some software, but since it's not actually legal, there are a lot of
situations in which it won't. For example, it breaks the extremely popular
squid proxy cache.

Is that any relation to our own Calum's www.livesquidinabox.com? :-) A well
working proxy cache should be viewed as "in a box" and one certainly hopes it
is live...
