International Character Domain HELP!!!!

[buabco]

HI!,

I've just got a customer who registered a domain with the letter "ñ" like niño.com and WHM wont let me create or register an account with this letter, it just eliminate it.

Form what I've read the appropiate character set for international domains is UNICOD so it shouldn't have any problem with a linux DNS.

Still when I tried to manually park the domain on the account I got an INVALID DOMAIN error.

Is there any step by step instrucctions form manually creating this domain on the DNS server and attaching it to the account in order to work arround the WHM safety protections?

The procedure convert the domain to punycode and then create the account. You can use http://www.nameisp.com/punycode.asp or any other similar tool for the conversion.

Thanks,

It worked fine with the punicode.
