} Wouldn't there be a delay for clients still trying to reach } your news server? If they have cached an IP address for } news.wherever.com, and then you took it out of Round Robin, } would there still be a finite number of clients trying to } reach that IP address? (Assuming they aren't looking to your } nameserver and you didn't HUP it). } } I'm pretty sure that Netscape doesn't (or at least didn't with } 2.0) query the nameserver each time... } A quick alias addition could fix that. One box could check periodically to see that another is still up, when it stops responding you take over for its IP address too. Richard
