Well, if the provider changes their DNS, and updates the zone file, it is reasonable to expect anyone using the DNS to update their corresponding configuration as well. > different host I have a busy hotline. > I've seen providers doing this pretty often - I think for load balancing and > availability reasons. Load balancing is typically done by simply providing multiple A records. Any change to the actual DNS zone requires a complete DNS server reload with the new zone, so it's not really a sane way to do load balancing. -- Sam _______________________________________________________________ Have big pipes?
