What you want is a TCP-based load balancing proxy: that accepts a connection and passes you through to a machine with a suitable load. This is an identical problem to load-balancing HTTP servers. I don't know much about this area, but I'm sure it has been solved. I'm also inclined to think that this is not distcc's job, but I really like your thinking. :-) Cheers, Ben _______________________________________________ distcc mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.samba.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/distcc
