Hi, I must use SOCK_RAW within a mod-perl module to implement with ip-tunneling dynamic load balancing on a cluster. Unfortunately i think that this is impossible whith Apache 1.3's API because of Apache's core handles connections (Apache modules can use SOCK_STREAM after a client connection, but they can't do connections with clients and handle a TCP stream or an IP datagram). Could someone confirm this? Can Apache 2's API handle SOCK_RAW ? Thanks, Inaki ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ .~.
