dns round robin - use for redundancy

[Terry Davis <tdavis@birddog.com>]

I understand that dns round robin will buy me some load balancing. 
However, I read in the ldap how-to that it can also provide a 
redundancy effect.  How would that work?  If my main ldap server goes 
down, dns does not
know this and would continue to to dish out the main ldap server as an 
answer.

Can someone clarify this for me ?

Thank you!
