Can I limit the number of A records returned

[Brian Miller]

Hi,

I am trying to find out if there is a way to limit the number of "A"
records returned in a single DNS response.

The problem I have is we are running a zone in "round robin"
order, and one entry has 20 IP addresses associated to the one name.

For most clients this causes no problems, but we have an old/lame
client stack running on some PCs that can't handle a response this
big.  Is there an option we can set somewhere that limits the number
of addresses returned by a particular zone? i.e. a limit of say "6"
addresses returned.

Thanks in advance,

Brian
