In checking through the Bind documentation, I I can't say how dalnet does this as I am not familiar with it but you can just include multiple A records for a single domain. For example, say you have two irc servers at yourcompany.com which you want load balanced. irc A 192.168.1.1 A 192.168.1.2 Iirc, the dns protocol returns a records in a rotating order so you'll have a more or less round-robin setup without having to go with load balancers and the like.
