How to configure SRV DNS subdomain?

Posted on March 10, 2015

Hey! I have a domain connected to my droplet and it’s working fine. I have a torrent management website on port 9091 so I’m connecting to it by mydomain.tk:9091 (I have a .tk domain). I made a second A record to make a subdomain because I want to connect to torrent service by for ex. torrent.mydomain.tk. I’ve read that I need to configure SRV record and I did it as on attached image but it’s still not working.

it should be something like this:

_torrent._tcp.hal-9000.tk

So it looks ok, but torrent.hal-9000.tk is not responding, so maybe something wrong with the dns, recreate the records and try again.
