SpaceDog,

I agree with Adultwire...

The goal of having a completely redundant website in a second location cannot be solved simply by DNS configuration.

You'd most likely need to find a new DNS solution that will track the state of both hosts and return the IP of the host that's alive. F5 Systems has a product called 3DNS that will most likely do that. They are not cheap solutions.

You'll need two of those... It's not the cheapest way to solve the problem, but it's a pretty damn good one.

Good luck.
