This means that DC++ doesn't have access to any DNS server, aka it can't resolve that hostname. Make sure DC++ is allowed to use the internet, or if your connection is allright ( also, check your typing see if you mistyped the address, in that case the hostname really doesn't exist ).

Either go to the Help/About menu and see if it can download the Latest Version number (bottom of the window), or simply try to Refresh some hublist in the Public Hubs window.
Also try different hubs from the hublists to see if you are able to connect to them or not.
