Round robin DNS is easy - just add a second A record. This is what we
do at my (soon to be former) web hosting job.
I tried Ultra-Monkey which is based on VA-Linux System's patches to the
RH 6.2 kernel. Worked great under testing (2.6-5.2 mbps oscillating
load for five days), but it locked up hard within an hour when we put
it online with real servers. That sucked.
RR-DNS has worked fine for us. It was good enough to survive publicity
by the Howard Stern show about a month ago.
