Certianly!
Do note that you will only get a round-robin solution here, vs a failover
solution.
That is to say that, generally, both servers willl get used all of the
time. And if one server goes down, you'll find that you'll still get the
server-unreachable's that you dont want.
You might, all depending on your network topology, be able to utilize some
sort of inside-to-inside NAT to do this, with priorities for each
entry...I seem to remember seeing some examples of this, but cant recall
them off the top of my head.
(map one address to two others, where the map will choose the first one as
long as it is up..)
