Dear sir,
 
I have 2 web servers web1.i-ticket.gr and web2.i-ticket.gr with IPs e.g
213.249.50.91 
and 213.249.50.92 respectively. I want to have redundancy via DNS on these
servers through Round Robin 
technique. I want to "map"  <http://www.i-ticket.gr/> www.i-ticket.gr on
both web servers, so if something happens
to the one server, the client to be able to reach the second one.
I configured the following :
 
To the zone/db "i-ticket" I did :
web1            IN A    213.249.50.91
web2            IN A    213.249.50.92
www             5       IN      CNAME   web1
www             5       IN      CNAME   web2
 
To the 192.168.1 zone/db I did :
 
91      IN PTR  web1.i-ticket.gr.
92      IN PTR  web2.i-ticket.gr.
 
 
 
I tested through ping to see the bahavior and I saw that all the time  I
have connection
with web2.
 
The Bind is version 8.1 which comes with Solaris 7.
Do you have any suggestion ?
