This is strange in multiple ways: First the address. abcd1234abcd1234.onion cannot be a *real* onion address because onion addresses are supposed to be unreadable :-) I suspected it to be some kind of test address so i tried to find it in the Tor source code. No luck. But.... I got a telnet reply when i tried to connect to it with AORTA. The connection was closed immediate after i got the "Escape character is" message. With torsocks the address was not resolved and no connection was established. About the IPV6 address in your AORTA session. I do not know how you got this address. AORTA should only resolve to an IPV4 address in the 10.192.0.0/10 range.
