OT: Replica's and Your Tree

[Christopher Mangiarelli]

I thought that was only true of MS DHCP Services?  I've always configured
two SLPDA's on a Novell DHCP server and had them delivered.  SLPINFO /A on
the clients shows both DA's discovered via DHCP.

BTW, you can also add additional replica servers to your tree DNS entry.
DNS Round Robins are not very effective fault tolerant or load balancing
mechanisms, but they serve in a pinch and for no additional cost. YMMV.
