Windows DNS Round Robin

Is there a simple way to Load Balance your Web Servers? NLB has been around a while - but you can also use DNS Round Robin. This will give you a list of servers in a random sequence every time you ask. Use DNS Management, right click the server name in the left pane, select Properties , select Advanced tab, make sure " Enable round robin " is selected. Add HOST(A) records in the appropriate forward lookup zone, pointing to all the servers you want in the cluster. To add a poor-man's fault tolerance, ensure that TTL of each record is set to a short period of time, i.e. 15 seconds.
