Both are rules of DNS, basically.
So the ms ldap {lookout client} lookups are not actually legit ? I am
not surprised.
And is only the trailing - not legitimate, or a - anywhere in the name ?

Microsoft do it right....
Per http://domainkeys.sourceforge.net/underscore.html
"Host names are not allowed to have underscores in them. In DNS, host
names are the name fields of A or MX records or the data fields of the
SOA and NS records. Thus, there are many DNS entries that are not
hostnames."
This may be why it doesn't it in /etc/hosts (it's refers to 'host' names).
-'s are valid in domain names. and yeah, most likely correct about them
not allowed at the end (it makes sense really).
