You will need contact their support on that. They will tunnel in and adjust it 
for you. However ask them if this will reset each time you update the firmware, 
I suspect it will that is how any special settings I have had them make behave.

There is a downside to what you are doing.....turning down the dns cache will 
probably turn down all the dns cache's....so you will be doing far more lookups 
with it.

That sounds likely, I just don't see anywhere within the GUI to control that 
behaivor.

Subject: SMTP Load Balancing - Barracuda

Good morning all,

I've got two Barracuda SPAM/Virus Firewalls that I'm trying to setup for load 
balancing outgoing mail. The Barracuda's forward mail to a smarthost, and since 
they're clustered, I can't specify separate smart hosts per device. Barracuda 
documentation indicates this is accomplished using MX records. I created an MX 
record named testmx.domain.com<http://testmx.domain.com/> and two A records 
both named test.domain.com<http://test.domain.com/>, one for each of the 
downstream smart hosts. However, both of the barracuda's appear to favor only 
one of the smart hosts when delivering outgoing mail.

Repeated NSLookups against the MX record seem to alternate between the A 
records as expected. Any ideas on why this wouldn't work?
