My nightly tarsnap backups failed with the following message:

tarsnap: Error looking up betatest-server.tarsnap.com: hostname norservname provided, or not known

tarsnap: Cannot obtain server address

I can now resolve the address

arthur@fileserver> host betatest-server.tarsnap.com
betatest-server.tarsnap.com has address 75.101.135.185

Was this a DNS glitch at this end or at tarsnap.com?
