Understood, but what I'm asking about is that the slave does not appear to be losing contact with the first-listed master. In fact, from the logs, it appears to be flipping back and forth (though not round-robinning).
Someone else asked, essentially, "why?" ... The network paths are diverse to the different interfaces so, while I'm not protecting against failure of the master, I am protecting against network path failure. -- Peter Laws / N5UWY National Weather Center / Network Operations Center / Web University of Oklahoma Information Technology pl...@ou.edu ________________________________________ From: bind-users-bounces+plaws=ou....@lists.isc.org [bind-users-bounces+plaws=ou....@lists.isc.org] on behalf of Barry Margolin [bar...@alum.mit.edu] Sent: Saturday, July 24, 2010 07:09 To: comp-protocols-dns-b...@isc.org Subject: Re: Multiple masters expected behavior?

That's true in *your* case. But BIND was designed to handle the more general case, where the masters can be different machines. -- Barry Margolin, bar...@alum.mit.edu Arlington, MA *** PLEASE don't copy me on replies, I'll read them in the group *** _______________________________________________ bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users _______________________________________________ bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
