I have set up two terminal servers and made and entry in DNS that will round robin the two servers for a cheap-man’s load balancing. I have gotten my HP thin clients to go back and forth between the two. But when I try on the Wyse thin clients, it only goes to one of the servers.
Is there somewhere that holds on to that address?
January 30, 2008 at 4:17 pm #11535Hi,
to help you we do need a lot more informations.
What clients are you using?
What firmware is installed?
ICA or RDP?
Are you using wnos.ini? Please post.Cheers
CGJanuary 30, 2008 at 4:25 pm #11536Sorry, all are v10l’s.
Firmware is 5.2.0_35.05 and 6.0.0_14.
RDP
Using wnos.ini generated by your software 😀Thanks
January 30, 2008 at 4:36 pm #11537Please post your wnos.ini

January 30, 2008 at 6:54 pm #11541What do you mean by ” the other server was the next in line”?

January 30, 2008 at 7:17 pm #11542well, i have 2 server set up. RDP010 and RDP011. If I am on the HP, I will log on, and it will go to 010. I log off and log right back on, and it goes to 011. Back and forth, it round robins the logins.
If I try it from the Wyse and it only goes to 010. No matter what I do, I can reset it to factory defaults and it still goes to 010.
January 30, 2008 at 9:59 pm #11546Well, out of the blue, it started to work…thanks for the help, confgen!
January 30, 2008 at 10:47 pm #11548Hi,
There will be a local cache life on the DNS resolution, normally a computer will hold the resolved IP for the host for a bit and this is what may have caused it.
Once the cache is cleared it goes to the DNS server to resolve the name again and the round robin may occur. Remember round robin is not prefect and expect to see more users on one server than the other,
Cheers,

So are you saying that the V10L held on to this local cache life?
January 31, 2008 at 2:09 pm #11565Yes, it does but the default is taken from the DNS server setting.
You can use this wnos.ini parameter to force an update each timeDNSTTL=0
Cheers
CGJanuary 31, 2008 at 2:31 pm #11569I’m pretty sure the DNS TTL is already at 0, but where do I put that in the wnos file?
Thanks once again.

The order of parameters is normally not important. -
