Is there any DNS server currently availible that can reply to DNS lookups based on the source IP address?
Yes, all those global load balancing products. (e.g. Cisco Distributed Director). Alternatively, some people (myself included) have written their own DNS server for use within their organisation which does the same thing. I'm not aware of a freeware solution to this.
Yes, this would be for directing users to a 'local' server hosting www.example.org (or something similar). Yes, this is not the best way of doing it I know :-)
It's the best way to do global server load balancing, as I see it. Simon -- Simon Lockhart | Tel: +44 (0)1737 839676 Internet Engineering Manager | Fax: +44 (0)1737 839516 BBC Internet Services | Email: Simon.Lockhart@bbc.co.uk Kingswood Warren,Tadworth,Surrey,UK | URL: http://support.bbc.co.uk/
