Failover ordering

["Morong, Gerry" <Gerry.Morong@compaq.com>]

We have one master and two replica LDAP servers in a test mode.  What is the
better way to configure that /etc/ldap.conf HOST line for failover and
balanced work load?  If you list all three of the LDAP server on the HOST
line, do they failover sequentially or is a server chosen randomly from that
line?  Is it better to configure DNS with one hostname that points to all
three server IP address?  Would this kill your failover?  Any
recommendations??
