Could not resolve hostname
What's happening is that Borg is trying to resolve the domain name on its own instead of leaving Tor to do the job. This leaves traces for your internet service provider (or whoever else resolves your DNS queries), so if you need to keep the fact that you tried connecting confidential, this should be taken seriously. Otherwise you may wish to ignore it.
Does the same message appear when using SSH?
Hey, thanks for the answer!
torsocks ssh works perfectly, I get no error message.
Borg is supposed to use SSH for communication, so I don't understand why I get those name resolution errors. Borg does its job, it works ok through torsocks, but it shows those name resolution error messages.
PS. By the way, I originally sent my question to this list, but it was never approved by the moderator (or there was another problem I don't know), so then I sent my message to the tor-talk list and it was finally approved there. But now I get an answer in this list, where my question has never been published as far as I know... I don't understand anything :)
