For those who are actually looking for a solution to this... Use Pound. http://unix.freshmeat.net/projects/pound/
Pound is a reverse HTTP proxy, load balancer, and SSL wrapper. It proxies client HTTPS requests to HTTP backend servers, distributes the requests among several servers while keeping sessions, supports HTTP/1.1 requests even if the backend server(s) are HTTP/1.0, and sanitizes requests ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Orlando Andico <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Oct 3, 2007 1:11 PM Subject: Re: [plug] what technology?

You know it's funny but what you describe is very similar to the "super technology" I was describing earlier. I mean concept is similar but I'm sure implementation is very different. But that's not relevant -- your roll-your-own protocol is only applicable to your own application. I was _specifically_ (to be on topic) pointing out that WEB servers are difficult to failover due to session issues. _________________________________________________ Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List [email protected] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Read the Guidelines: http://linux.org.ph/lists Searchable Archives: http://archives.free.net.ph -- -- Roger P.
