Abstract
We obtain correct expression for the entropy of spherically symmetric black holes in general D-dimensional Gauss-Bonnet gravity from the asymptotic CFT near the horizon.
We are using units in which the speed of light and Boltzman’s constant are set to one, but keeping ħ and Newton's constant G explicit. In this units Planck length is lP = (Għ)1/2.
