We use GSLB for geo-distribution and load-balancing. Each service is assigned a fixed domain name. Through some DNS magic, the domain name is resolved into an IP that's closest to the server with least load. For the load-balancing to work, the application server needs to honor the TTL from DNS response and to resolve the domain name again when cache times out. However, I couldn't figure out a way to do this in Java.
The application is in Java 5, running on Linux (Centos 5).

Java has some seriously weird dns caching behavior. Your best bet is to turn off dns caching or set it to some low number like 5 seconds.
networkaddress.cache.ttl (default: -1)
Indicates the caching policy for successful name lookups from the name service. The value is specified as as integer to indicate the number of seconds to cache the successful lookup. A value of -1 indicates "cache forever".
networkaddress.cache.negative.ttl (default: 10)
Indicates the caching policy for un-successful name lookups from the name service. The value is specified as as integer to indicate the number of seconds to cache the failure for un-successful lookups. A value of 0 indicates "never cache". A value of -1 indicates "cache forever".
