Having some trouble with this one.  (this is in a lab)

Want to have two servers authoritative for
www.bouldertri.net.  Main server has bouldertri.net
and a number of hosts.  Works fine for the first host
in /etc/named.conf, check the fowarders for
www.bouldertri.net:

cat /etc/named.conf
options {
        directory "/var/named";
        forwarders{
        };
};
zone "." {
        type hint;
        file "named.ca";
};
zone "bouldertri.net"{
        type master;
        file "bouldertri.net";
};
zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa"{
        type master;
        file "named.local";
};
zone "1.168.192.IN-ADDR.ARPA"{
        type master;
        file "192.168.1";
};
zone "www.bouldertri.net"{
        type forward;
        forward only;
        forwarders{
                152.131.87.3; 192.168.1.204;
        };

And I have two ns records as well:

cat bouldertri.net
@               IN      SOA     boulder2       
hostmaster.boulder2. (
                        17 ; serial
                        3600 ; refresh
                        900 ; retry
                        1209600 ; expire
                        43200 ; default_ttl
                        )
@               IN      MX      5       boulder2
@               IN      NS      boulder2
;
;Hosts -- Address records
boulder2                IN      A       192.168.1.202
boulder1                IN      A       192.168.1.201
bm              IN      A       192.168.1.203
;
;NameServer Records, point www at the CSS switch
www.bouldertri.net.             IN      NS     
192.168.1.204.
www.bouldertri.net.             IN      NS     
152.131.87.1.
;
; CNAME or Alias Records
rh              IN      CNAME   boulder2
md              IN      CNAME   boulder1


Yet...  dig @192.168.1.202 www.bouldertri.net always
returns the same address and always goes to the same
forwarder.  I had expected it to roundrobin between
the two...

Ideas?
