 @cindex ConnectTo
 @item @strong{ConnectTo = <name>}
-Specifies which host to connect to on startup.  Multiple ConnectTo
-variables may be specified, if connecting to the first one fails then
-tinc will try the next one, and so on.  It is possible to specify
-hostnames for dynamic IP addresses (like those given on dyndns.org),
-tinc will not cache the resolved IP address.

-If you don't specify a host with ConnectTo, regardless of whether a
-value for ConnectPort is given, tinc won't connect at all, and will

+Specifies which other tinc daemon to connect to on startup.
+Multiple ConnectTo variables may be specified,
+in which case outgoing connections to each specified tinc daemon are made.
+The names should be known to this tinc daemon
