I got balance installed, but the documentation is a bit lacking.
You also need to be aware that not all services can be balanced. If it's just HTTP then you're okay.
Yeah, all I want, is to round robin HTTP traffic. So, my balance command would look like:
balance http verlaine:http rimbaud:80 ?
If balance is on the same machine as one of the services then you'll need to instruct apache to listen on another port, so find the line in httpd.conf that says
Port 80
and change it to say something else, like
Port 81
Then, supposing you're running balance on verlaine you can say
balance http verlaine:81 rimbaud:http
Or, if you have a third machine that isn't running a webserver you could say
balance http verlaine rimbaud
and that would do the trick. That machine could be a pentium II and still do just fine to balance your servers.
When you say something like http there it's just a symbolic name for 80, that's why the example shows it both ways.
