Website failover

[Richard Peiper]

	You don't do that with DNS, you need a loadbalancer of some
kind... Or you can set the TTL very low and change it by hand when they
go down (which I would not recommend)

all,

I have two web servers server A and server B. both servers host the
same web application. Server B is the slave server off server A. both
servers are located on different places. How can I configure DNS so
that a www request always goes to the primary server A but when server
A is offline the same request goes automatically to server B?

Regards,

John van Lit
