Round robin DNS type of service

[Brent Clark <bclark@eccotours.co.za>]

Hey all

If you look @ google

bclark@zion:~$ dig www.google.com +short
www.l.google.com.
216.239.37.104	<---------------------------- This is First
216.239.37.99
bclark@zion:~$ dig www.google.com +short
www.l.google.com.
216.239.37.99
216.239.37.104	<---------------------------- Now its second
bclark@zion:~$

This my question, I want to do the same OR

What I really want is:
I want to purchase ANOTHER dedicated server and make it so that if on someone types in the browser www.eccotours.biz, obviously it will resolve to
one of the IPs. BUT how will I handle if one of the machines is down. How can I get around this.
Or will the client first try one IP, if on failure, try the next one.
