You might be better off to mount the /var/qmail/control to a different
directory and then symlink all the files except me. That way you get the
advantages of single maintenance control files and the disadvantage of
single point of failure!!! If you're load balancing for redundancy, this
doesn't seem to fit your overall plan. If you're load balancing for
performance, you won't care.
