Hi,

I am in the process of testing unbound and have found the following with
round robin dns entries.

Using www.cnn.com as an example, unbound gives me the same answer
(157.166.255.19) everytime whereas bind gives me the intended different
answers. Example below.

Command used was while true; do date; nslookup www.cnn.com| head -n6 ; sleep
1; done

Is there something I need to set in unbound to get it to return the random
answers like bind does?

Thanks
