http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hostname says:

"Unlike domain names, hostname labels can only be made up of the ASCII
letters 'a' through 'z' (case-insensitive), the digits '0' through '9',
and the hyphen. Labels can not start nor end with a hyphen. Special
characters other than the hyphen (and the dot between labels) are not
allowed, although they are sometimes used anyway."
