I have a few hostnames like following.


group-compress<H3><I> Serial Console Server </I></H3>
0.0.0.0 linux2-sol.test.com # noconn
0.0.0.0 linux2-sol.test.com # noconn
0.0.0.0 linux3-sol.test.com # noconn
0.0.0.0 linux1-sol.test.com # noconn

They won't shown up in the final html page unless I changed them to "_" underline characher like following.

group-compress<H3><I> Serial Console Server </I></H3>
0.0.0.0 linux2_sol.test.com # noconn
0.0.0.0 linux2_sol.test.com # noconn
0.0.0.0 linux3_sol.test.com # noconn
0.0.0.0 linux1_sol.test.com # noconn

Rather odd, given that the "-" is a valid component of a host name in DNS
and "_" is not.  I have many with the hyphen, but am not using
group-compress.

Well, that's odd...  I have literally dozens of names exactly like that, and
all of them show up in 4.2.0+allinone.  What version have you got??

Works fine for me as well on 4.2.0+allinone. I have 50+ hosts with "-" in
their names, i.e.

group-compress <H3>Spectralink Wireless</H3>
10.1.2.3    Spectralink-Gateway-1 # telnet DESCR:"Telco:Spectralink Wireless
Gateway 1. Telecom Supported."
10.1.2.4    Spectralink-Gateway-2 # telnet DESCR:"Telco:Spectralink Wireless
Gateway 2. Telecom Supported."

In fact, even Henrik's site has one (bb-mws.csc.dk):

   http://www.hswn.dk/hobbit/hosteddomains/

and that's 4.3.0.20080403.

I have over 500 hosts, and they all have "-".
