 |
|
How would i go about setting up a system.. in witch.. i can access my website..
www.yourowndisaster.net and if my website does not respond say in like 15 seconds be redirected. to another ip address or hostname.
im also running my own DNS servers if that will help you.
thanks...
it would go like this...

not sure if it will work the same for u. What I did was having 2 line of ip add which points to www.
| Code: |
Localhost IN A 127.0.0.1
ftp IN A 192.168.2.2
www IN A 192.168.2.4
www IN A 192.168.2.8
|
So when I do a nslookup, sometimes it bring me to 192.168.2.4 sometimes 192.168.2.8
It work more like load balancing for me rather than backup.
