FRED seems to be rejecting what looks like a valid NSSET creation request as shown here below.

Is there any good reason why it is rejecting the hostname ns1.names.rent as a valid hostname for a nameserver?

Dear Partner,

we have a customer who tried to change the name servers of many of his .MW domains to :
ns1.names.rent
ns2.names.rent

But we get a strange error :
"Invalid nameserver hostname"
