I use webmin to add domains to the DNS. Webmin appears to block you from entering punycode domain names when it verifies you have entered a correct domain name.<br />
<br />
When we edited the file directly it worked with the punycode, thanks.<br />

I have a couple of Japanese language (IDN) domain names. These consist of Japanese characters followed by the .JP TLD.<br />
<br />
I need to have these added to a DNS server. Currently we're running BIND 9.2.4 on a shared DNS server. I tried just adding the domain but it didn't work, I didn't expect it to so no surprise there.<br />
<br />
I have heard of some kind of ascii translation that can be done but I'm finding it hard to locate information on this subject.<br />
<br />
Could someone please explain the process that will allow me to add these domain names to the BIND server.<br />
<br />
Alternatively some kind of external DNS server solution would also be acceptable so long as it is reasonably priced.<br />
<br />
Thanks<br />

Japanese characterset IDN domains - how do I setup these on a DNS server

The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical, globally distributed system responsible for associating the name of a computer, service or other resource into an IP address for connecting to the Internet or a private network. Most prominently, it translates domain names to the numerical IP addresses needed for the purpose of computer services and devices worldwide.
