DNS - how to resolve one FQDN to a different IP depending on where user is located

Asked by lonecedar in Domain Name Service (DNS), Windows 2003 Server, Active Directory

Hi Experts

We have a need to resolve an internal web site name to a different IP address depending on where the user is located. For example - Site A has website named mywebsite.domain.com pointing to 10.1.8.40 which is on the local site. Site B is in a different state and is part of the same AD domain. Site B needs to resolve the same website name (mywebsite.domain.com) to 10.22.168.11.  Site B cannot ever resolve to 10.1.8.40.  There is a DNS server at Site A and Site B and are both part of the same AD domain and DNS is integrated.

I have looked at round robin but this does not appear to be the way to configure DNS.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks
