    Howdy,

    While setting up Hub 3 and not keying in dns names for the hubs - I was going to rely on DNS to find the other hubs.

    But I've noticed they are not resolving?

    [leenooks@ov-1-1 ~]$ dig f100.n4.z21.fsxnet.nz

    ; <<>> DiG 9.11.4-P2-RedHat-9.11.4-9.P2.el7 <<>> f100.n4.z21.fsxnet.nz

    When compared to my entry...

    This is correct as it uses a non-standard port. You have to query the SRV record:

    $ dig -t srv _binkp._tcp.f100.n4.z21.fsxnet.nz
