1c3d0g Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 Looks to me like either the tracker is down or gone out forever. There's nothing anybody can do for you here. If you're impatient, grab another torrent...otherwise just wait it out. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HolyBastard Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 A tracker keep track off all the peers that want to download the file (and upload) so you can have Peers to interact with. It can also keep track of peers progress and many other stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slayers Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 "hostname not found" could also mean problems with the DNS server of your ISP. If this is the case you'll also have intermitent problems accessing webpages, getting mail, etc. Just another possibility although I think 1c3d0g hit it on the nail.I sometimes get this error message when my ISP starts fiddling with the network... :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1c3d0g Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 Neither do I. So...did you follow the link? It explains what a tracker is. Since you seem to also be having problems with DHT (I assume you have DHT on), it could be your ISP experiencing some temporary problems. :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1c3d0g Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 Aww, come on man... :/ Nobody is going to spoon-feed you here. I'm not going to answer you anymore until you thoroughly read the FAQ & the BitTorrent FAQ.This is DHT:http://www.utorrent.com/faq.php#What_is_DHT.3FOnce you've read and understood all that, and are able to post an intelligent question, we're all ears.
