[jira] Commented: (CASSANDRA-677) cassandra-cli doesn't allow hyphens in hostnames

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-677?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12801859#action_12801859 ] 

Eric Evans commented on CASSANDRA-677:
--------------------------------------

Thanks Roger. But I'm afraid this won't work for a couple of reasons.

1. Because `Identifier' is used for column family names, it permits the use of hyphens there, which as things currently stand will cause problems (hint: on disk, CFs use hypen delimited filenames).

2. Something other than `Identifier' should be used since that would allow underscores in hostnames, which should not be permitted.

> It's not possible to use a hostname that contains a hyphen with the "connect" command interactively, (the parser does not accept hostnames that contain hyphens).
> Note: It is still possible to connect to such hosts by passing it on the command line using -host.
