Re: [Veritas-bu] Several seperated backup networks..
You can get away by putting the required entries in hosts files. But its only feasable when you have a small number of servers otherwise it can be a nightmare to manage hosts files in a large network. We use a seperate set of DNS servers which are not accessible to the public for our *nix boxes. Without DNS life of a sys admin is a pain.
