Hello everyone, i've stumbled into a question whether it is possible to configure BIND in a way that it responds to DNS SRV requests with the priority flag changed depending on the IP address of the requesting party. For example, there are two SRV records for _foobar._tcp. One points to 10.0.1.2

Rather than applying lipstick to the pig, why not run a local caching-only resolver? Move up and out of the stub-ville slums. A local instance of named doesn't take up that much server resources (disk, memory, CPU), and pays you back by *not*, as a stub resolver does, using network resources,

The problem with this approach is when you are running a couple thousand servers - suddenly, you are running a couple thousand more instances of BIND that need monitoring/patching/care/feeding. A more clever resolver, or a simpler caching setup locally would be ideal. Otherwise, you could
