The fallback to the DNSSRV backend would be a similar thing; supporting it

provide quicker service to internal users.

Just curious: How many domains have a SRV RR _ldap._tcp.<domain> so that it's worth thinking about offloading root.openldap.org? 


On the public side?  We don't, but I'd certainly be willing to add one
if somebody actually wrote something that used it.  This sounds very
interesting.


We don't on the internet; however, we're doing some interesting
things with it to have automatic load balancing and new slave
detection in a heavily loaded environment.
