@cpu > correct me if I'm wrong, but boulder won't work with reserved domains like .test, .example or .local right ?

[cpu]

@buchdag That's correct. Boulder's WillingToIssue function will reject anything that doesn't end in an ICANN registered TLD. .test, .example, and .local are not present in the list.

[buchdag]

thanks !

@zenhack > do you have any preference regarding this ? Close the issue and keep *.wtf, replace it with *.example.com/org, replace it with another TLD in ICANN list ?

[zenhack]

Looks ike @kuba tried that after the .test approach failed. At a glance, the travis build log suggests that *.example.{com,org,etc} are also rejected:

https://travis-ci.org/kuba/simp_le/jobs/123755661

@cpu, can you confirm?

I don't really think this is super important; something like example.org would be cleaner, but if there's not a straight-forward way to do that I'm inclined to just close and forget about it.

Same here, I can live with .wtf if there no both clean and easy alternative.

Ahh, yes. the example hostname policy that Boulder includes in master blacklists those hostnames. You can either replace this file before starting Boulder or work around it with a different example name.

Okay, that's what I suspected. I'm just going to close this and live with the current situation.
