This is a good point. I don't know much (anything) about round-robin implementation. I suspect, though, in the case of the OP, that if you don't know why your machines are answering to the same FQDN, they probably shouldn't be. Assuming you're the admin, of course. -- monique -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
