I think Scott's proposal would work perfect.  I really like the idea of being 
able to
handle fqdn's instead of only IP's.  Also the option of letting the server 
handle load
balancing instead of only manual selection via a list would be great.  This 
sort of
decision is best left to the experts and it sounds like it is in good hands.  I 
am sure
whatever the solution is it will be great.  I have also seen suggestions for 
ordering
list based on the least used server so that if you clicked a drop down for the 
list the
least used server would be the one at the top or the default.  

Is there a way keep an ssh connection to the servers and query stats to 
determine usage,
say check the amount of users logged in and to only build the list based of 
servers that
have a current ssh connection?  If a server went down the ssh would break and 
the user
amount would not be able to be queried so the server would not be added into 
the list. 
Then make the default server the one with the least amount of logged in users?

I don't know much about how this would or does work, but if there was an 
constant ssh
connection between servers could this also be a way to collect data to help 
apps such as
Student Control Panel or TeacherTool better manage users across multiple 
servers?

At the risk of sounding even more uneducated on this topic I'll stop typing :-)
