Hi,

How to make a priority acces if I had 2 systems for 1 entry  www?

Exemple:
I had two entries in a domain :

www        IN    A    x.x.x.15
www        IN    A    x.x.x.16

I would like that the x.x.x.15 system always answer when I 'ping' www.
How to make this ?

Thanks in advance.

Alexis



You can add two more a records:
www15        IN    A    x.x.x.15
www16        IN    A    x.x.x.16

This is perfectly legal.

I suspect that this is what you want, because it enables you to ping x.x.x.15
and x.x.x.16 through www15 and www16 respectively.
