Two outgoing queries for each incoming query

2009-03-12 Thread My Name
Is this possible with 9.6.0-P1 or do I need to change the code (all ideas
where to start are welcome, I haven't looked at the code yet).

I want to setup a forwarder and each incoming query (in fact only A or )
should be sent to two different upstream servers.

Why?  Bind already does this.  If there are two (or more) servers
serving a zone, it will already query all of them for the initial
query.  However, it uses the answer from the server that has the
fastest response time.

No.  It will query multiple servers in turn as needed to
satisfy queries.  RTT estimates are most effective with
infrastructure zones as those are the ones queried most
often.  Named tries to minimize the number of queries it
makes.
