Yes it just involves another entry with the additional address. However the
addresses would normally be used in a round robin fashion.
Example for BIND:
server1 A 172.68.1.1
A 172.68.1.2

Subject: Networking Question
I am working with a client and the question arose about if this could be
done:
Clients FTP data to one of two hosts.
If one host is down they actually update the DNS server entry to point the
down host to the other (backup) hostname
Is there a way to setup the DNS so that both host ip addresses are defined
for a single hostname?
thanks
