Yes, by improve I meant to have both files approximately same size. As for my last question, I thought maybe there is an option that makes us be able to define a shared directory for all DNS server so they all cache data in one place instead of caching on each server and therefore the issue of non balanced cache file appears.

What do you mean by "improve"? Having both servers cache (approximately) the same amount of data? If the reason for the unbalanced cache content is that you specify a lower size for ns2, you can "improve" it by increasing the max-cache-size value for ns2 (or decreasing it for ns1). If the reason is due to client-side server selection algorithm (many Unix based resolvers only uses the first address in /etc/resolv.conf as long as it responds to their queries), there's basically nothing you can do as the server side operator. > And is there any way to make cache file same on > both servers? I don't understand this question, if it doesn't mean the size of cached data. --- JINMEI, Tatuya Internet Systems Consortium, Inc. _______________________________________________ bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
