DNS https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc952.txt says "The first character must be an alpha character." univention-system-setup contains a check (util.is_domainname) that should complain during setup.
(In reply to Arvid Requate from comment #2) > univention-system-setup contains a check (util.is_domainname) that should > complain during setup. There was no complain from the setup... :/
Where has this been observed? Ticket?

Ah, RFC 1123 says: "One aspect of host name syntax is hereby changed: the restriction on the first character is relaxed to allow either a letter or a digit. Host software MUST support this more liberal syntax." And, indeed, the regex pattern of util.is_domainname allows that too. Sorry for the confusion, changing the component back to DNS.
Created attachment 10036 [details] dns_label_rfc_1123.patch Patch proposal.
Bug #25354 introduced this behavior. The quote from RFC 1123 in Comment 6 suggests that that change was too strict.
