I'm trying to design a way so if host "A" fails Host "B" will take over.
If my computer can not connect to Host "A" DNS will resolve to go to Host "B".
I was hoping in anyone could help me how to set this up using a DNS server.
thanks
that's automatic in the TCP config. If you look, there should be TWO DNS addresses.
Failure on the first (or a timeout) will cause the second to be used.
HOWEVER: you can't just slam in any two DNS addresses!
If you want to use manual DNS configuration, then you must be able to use
both requestions must return an IP address for google -- anything else will mean
that the dns-addr-x used may be valid but is not configured for a recursive query and
you MUST find some other dns address to use.
You would be better off using the TCP DHCP supplied DNS address(es)
