Hello all,

just curious, but looking at my auth.log file. I see many lines like this. about every 2 till 5 minutes there is a line in the log quite similar to this one.

Code: Select all

transmission-gtk: gethostby*.getanswer: asked for "calu-atrack.appspot.com.nyud.net IN A", got type "DNAME"
Is there anybody out there who can explain me what this means?

Thanks

Transmission 2.51 (13280)
