sure it is.
Here a more detailed version:

RR usually results in roughly equal load balancing. He said he wants
one of the addresses to get MORE traffic than the other. How do you
propose he specify the ratios with BIND?

One (icky) solution is to hand out more addresses for one server than the
otherŠ
<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.example.com">www.example.com</a> IN A 192.168.1.1
<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.example.com">www.example.com</a> IN A 192.168.1.2
<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.example.com">www.example.com</a> IN A 192.168.1.3
<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.example.com">www.example.com</a> IN A 192.168.2.1
Bind 192.168.1.[1-3] to server1 and 192.168.2.1 to server2.
server1 should now get kinda roughly 3 time as much traffic as server2
(depending on number of clients, phase of moon, flavor of ice-cream, etc).
Horrendously icky, waste of space, etc butŠ

Unless things have changed since I last checked this (many years ago),
BIND ignores the duplicates.</pre>
</blockquote>
I see no duplicates here, only one server with 3 IPs. This should
work but is a big mess in many ways.<br>
