HOLD ON GUYS.

I know this is off topic, but there is misinformation being spread.

djbdns DOES rotate A records. I know. I run it. I use it for load balancing
and failover. It works.

It doesn't rotate the A records on a cached query, but it does when it is
the master for a zone. My understanding of the RFC's is that it shouldn't
anyways... Any client is SUPPOSED to attempt to use ALL A records returned -
many may not, but using bind won't fix this either - it doesn't add it's own
rotation as far as I know - and you can't control what the clients use as a
resolver anyways...

If you want to argue with me off-list go for it, but I can prove this works.

TTL shorter than 60 seconds are not recommended - regardless of what DNS
server you are using, EVERY sysadmin should read DNS&Bind.
