For most OSes, the machine will only pay attention to the first
three that are listed (no matter how many you have in the file).
For Microsoft OSes, they'll only ever pay attention to the first
one that they can talk to the first time they try to resolve
anything, and then permanently cache that until they are rebooted.
So, the answer really is far worse than you had thought it would be.
