[Samba] DNS Round Robin not working?

[Kris Lou]

Hi all,

I seem to have run into a case where my DC's aren't being round-robin'ed by
DNS.  I've got 3 DC's using Internal DNS, but every time I ping mydomain.com
and check the results (ipconfig /displaydns), it's always in the same order.

The same order appears when I query the DC's directly, individually:

# nslookup mydomain.com 172.23.51.5

Server:         172.23.51.5
Address:        172.23.51.5#53

Name:   mydomain.com
Address: 172.23.51.5
Name:    mydomain.com
Address: 172.23.51.3
Name:    mydomain.com
Address: 172.19.27.10
Name:    mydomain.com
Address: 172.23.51.6


Does anybody know how this can occur? I am running two sites (172.19.27.10
is on a different site, the others are local), if that matters.

Thanks,
-Kris
