Could you provide more information about your goal? I don't fully understand the question. For my reading, the answer is basically no, in that an SRV record just provides data about where.a particular service can be found. It's up to other systems to fetch that data and interpret it, including whether that service is actually available at the given endpoint. In its typical operation, BIND will just take whatever name and port the zone administrator said to provide for that SRV record, and not do any sort of availability checks on it. However, if you go deep into a far more complicated, custom use of BIND, you could set up a process that monitors the availability and changes the SRV record accordingly. -- tale _______________________________________________ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list ISC funds the development of this software with paid support subscriptions.
