Hi all, The Solaris man page for gethostbyname includes... "The system will strive to put the addresses on the same sub-net as that of the caller first." This means that round robining doesn't strictly work as you might expect (or want). Does anyone know if there's a way to get Solaris not to prefer addresses on the same subnet, but to treat all as equal?
