Thread: DNS roundrobin

  1. #1

    DNS roundrobin

    If i take accounts on 2 companies for shared(virtual) hosting....what all do i need to enable round robin from my domain name?

    mean, i have the same site on both servers...when somebody goes towww.mydomain.com, they are randomly, or alternatingly directed to each servers to balance load and introduce fault tolerance.

    Doing this, can i still use a custom MX record?

    -thanks.

    Just add another A record to your DNS zone files and everything will work fine including custom MX record

    thanks. but will this method work if my websites do not have a unique IP? i mean, if they are something like

    http://122.122.122.34/~userxyz/mirror1
    and
    http://11.12.31.111/~userabc/mirror2

    ?
