Round Robin DNS

networking

I know the Linode DNS servers go from ns1-ns5.linode.com. Is there an alias that would bundle them all in one, on a round robin? Something like dns.linode.com, for example, that would resolve to all five.

If you simply add all five name servers to your domain, you'll get the same effect.

Hrm shouldn't ns6 appear sometime soon now there's 6 data centres?
