The way I wanted it was 104.238.117.105 AND 132.148.11.44 to point to<br>
<a href="http://jetbbs.com" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">jetbbs.com</a> but I think I setup the DNS record wrong. I just added<br>
another A record for <a href="http://jetbbs.com" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">jetbbs.com</a> and added the IP address 132.148.11.44 to<br>
it. This part wasn't for the reverse DNS. I got two IP addresses I'm<br>
using.<br>

I got an A name for franklin, and that's the 104.238.117.105. Should I<br>
have added another A name for franklin as well to setup the round robin<br>
stuff? You know, when someone connects to JetBBS.com, the first time they<br>
connect, it takes them to 104.238.117.105. The next time they connect, it<br>
takes them to 132.148.11.44. <br>

you don't have to set up "round robin" and you can't decide who connects to<br>
which IP.<br>
<br>
If you set up two IP addresses for one DNS name, random servers will connect<br>
to random addresses in rantom times.<span class=""><br>

Is this why whenever I pinged <a href="http://jetbbs.com" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">jetbbs.com</a>, I<br>
only got a reply from 132.148.11.44 and not from 104.238.117.105 you think?<br>

<br></span>
that is because <a href="http://jetbbs.com" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">jetbbs.com</a> only contains 104.238.117.105 now...<span class=""><br>

Because I didn't setup another A name for franklin? Thanks and sorry<br>
for all the questions. I know these probably aren't really bind related<br>
questions anymore. Thanks!<br>

once more: <a href="http://jetbbs.com" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">jetbbs.com</a> IS NOT <a href="http://franklin.jetbbs.com" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">franklin.jetbbs.com</a> !<br>

FYI currently they both only contain 104.238.117.105<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
