On our SOGo 5 on RHEL 8, also without systemd-resolved, it doesn't work. Our nameservers are in resolv.conf and they do round-robin by randomly sending the responses. Our DNS is finde, I tried it.
Re: [SOGo] DNS A record round robin
As sogo does not resolve by itself the hostname, I'd recommend setting up your resolver to return the records accordingly. This can be also done on a per-host basis. E.g. by configuring systemd-resolved (which randomizes) or unbound (which defaults to round-robin) locally on the host via resolv.conf.

Does sogo do DNS round-robin by using them randomly or does sogo use just the first and only uses the second if the first is unreachable? Currently the requests only go to the machine listed in the 1st A.

It currently only connects to the server in the fist A record (no set, our admins haven't already set up IPv6, sadly).

If you gave it that name as the IMAP server, you can check on the logs to see the IP address it is making a connection to. I will leave the definitive answer to the developers to talk about how the DNS libraries behave :) -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254 7 3200 0004/+254 7 2274 3223 "Oh, the cruft.", egrep -v '^$|^.*#' ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ :-)

I talked about the connection to the IMAP server. Does sogo do any load balancing there is it is possible, e.g. because multiple A, or CNAME are set for the DNS fo the IMAP server?
Re: [SOGo] DNS A record round robin
SOGo is not a load-balancer. SOGo daemon only listens and responds to what the web server requests of it. On Tue, Nov 8, 2022 at 4:38 PM Marco Moock wrote: > Hello, > at work we have 2 IMAP servers.

[SOGo] DNS A record round robin
Hello, at work we have 2 IMAP servers. There is a hostname with 2 A records. Does sogo do DNS round-robin by using them randomly or does sogo use just the first and only uses the second if the first is unreachable? Currently the requests only go to the machine listed in the 1st A. -- kind regards Marco
