This will map a name to more than one ip and will give you 
load-balancing this way, but not real redundancy.
To map a service to different hosts redundant you can use a 
box running ipvs. This box can be made redundant with a identical box using 
mon and heartbeat to do ip failover.

Dynamic DNS will not provide the response you are looking for.  Many
browsers cache DNS for 30 mins or more regardless of your TTL.  Many
ISPs cache DNS for a day or two regardless of your TTL.  My expererience
is that it takes up to 2 days before a DNS change fully propogates even
with a TTL of 5 mins.  In some pathological cases I have seen it take 6
months.

[Full-disclosure] Server Redundancy

2006-08-09 Thread Sec Bas

Hi

I'm setting up a redundant server. Both servers are connected to the
Internet in different data centers. My needs are to have one of the
servers mirroring the another one, with traffic going to one of them,
and, when the active server goes down, traffic should be temporarly
sent to the other server. I was thinking about doing this with Dynamic
DNS and using rsync to replicate changes. Does someone has some
experience they can share in this area? Or if you have insight I would
really like to hear about it.

Thanks.
