Not optimal, but better than ECONNREFUSED I would think. I'd be happy to set this up and foot the bill - if someone provides the content (I can make web pages but no one really wants that). Please do so! Although keep in mind that it is the DNS primary as well, so you'll have to update it with enough of a buffer that the secondary has cached the address by the time it goes offline. -glyph _______________________________________________ Twisted-Python mailing list [email protected] https://twistedmatrix.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twisted-python
