Are any hosting company's offer international character domain names for their clients yet?
If so, what is need to accept these in the config files or is it just a mime type?

I was wondering this too. Goodness, I can't imagine you guys getting a Korean domain name sign up. Copy&Paste and hope for the best? :)
Dave,
You might like to get in contact with Melbourne IT (http://www.melbourneit.com.au) (they deal with Chinese-character domains) and check their help files (if they have any) for accepting and configuring your server for these domains.
I'm not sure what you'll find as far as what a host will have to do, but all the technical information about multilingual DNS is available at Verisign Global Registry Services, http://www.verisign-grs.com/multilingual/multilingual.html -- I haven't looked there in a couple of weeks, so I'm out of touch.
