Intercepting more than just trailers.apple.com

So, I recently setup my own dns server so I could share plexconnect remotely (as it was recommended to not expose plexconnects dns server).  All is well over here, but I noticed I had to intercept the following hosts on top of trailers.apple.com.

 

e8076.e9.akamaiedge.net

trailers.apple.com.edgekey.net

 

Note that I had to do this both with bind and dnsmasq.  Is there something I'm missing here that made me include this extra step?  I figured bind/dnsmasq would ignore the original CNAMEs and forget about those two hosts completely, and I didn't see any references to those hosts in the plexconnect codebase.

 

Any thoughts are appreciated.  Thanks!

My guess: one of your connected aTVs still had those redirected addresses in its cache somewhere. If you start with a freshly booted aTV, there should be no reference to either of those addresses. Well, at least I'm not aware of it... :-D

Ok, I'll give them a hard reboot later and see what happens.

Assuming all goes well, I'll be providing a plexconnect rpm for everyone to use in the near future :)
