RE: Windows 2000 DNS and iSeries

Chris,

Can't help with your original problem here's something for you to think
about.  We have mirrored machines (using Vision) and when we switch to the
backup we actually change the IP address of the two machines so it doesn't
matter if someone somewhere has the address of the production machine
defined.
