>Description:
bash-2.05a$ traceroute www.gov.mk
traceroute: unknown host www.gov.mk

bash-2.05a$ host www.gov.mk
www.gov.mk is a nickname for mn_server.zic.gov.mk
mn_server.zic.gov.mk has address 194.149.136.55

it seems that traceroute doesn't work with (aliased) domains that contain a _ (btw. ping shows the same odd behavior)
>How-To-Repeat:
      traceroute www.gov.mk

      i don't know
