Any and all feedback welcome (positive as well as negative).

For those who haven't caught on, this is a complete load-balancing,
failover (live sessions on a failed box exempted :-( ) and scaleable
LTSP solution. It can take into account different specifications of
servers (and therefore doesn't require identical servers) and provides
no additional level of complexity in the operation of the servers, and
will allow the addition of new servers to a live setup without
disturbing client sessions.

Cheers

Chris

The latest version is

http://www.fensystems.co.uk/RPMS.fensys/equanimity-1.3-1fs.noarch.rpm
http://www.fensystems.co.uk/SRPMS.fensys/equanimity-1.3-1fs.src.rpm

You will also need the Perl package Net::Interface, which is available
from

http://www.fensystems.co.uk/RPMS.fensys/perl-Net-Interface-0.04_2-2fs.i5
86.rpm
http://www.fensystems.co.uk/SRPMS.fensys/perl-Net-Interface-0.04_2-2fs.s
rc.rpm

This latter is required in order to fix the "Network is unreachable"
issue.  equanimity will refuse to install without it.
