Google is known to obey it, and the question was about avoiding getting your site indexed by Google. Of course, that doesn't mean someone won't find the site on their own. If the link to it is on some other page that isn't blocked by robots.txt, someone might stuble across that page and then click on the link. But if you're mainly worried about someone googling the words that are on your website and Google sending them to the development version instead of the production version, you're pretty safe. Actually, DNS has very little impact on this at all. AFAIK, Google doesn't crawl DNS, it just crawls web pages and follows links. My company's development server is in DNS, and it's not firewalled (we all work from our homes, there's no company network to restrict access with), but I've never heard of anyone accidentally being directed there by Google, because we don't publish links to this server. -- Barry Margolin Arlington, MA
