Hi,
In section Configure DHCP to update DNS records - SambaWiki
<https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Configure_DHCP_to_update_DNS_records> there
is offered a script for DHCP to DNS auto uptate that should have
addendum. According to RFCs, including RFC 1035 and RFC 1123 DNS labels
can not have special characters have space or start with hyphen.
In section:
....
# exit if name contains a space
case ${name} in
*\ * )
logger "Invalid hostname '${name}' ...Exiting"
exit
;;
esac
....
One should add these cases.
