You might be interested in Linux Virtual Server Project. See http://www.linux-vs.org/ BTW, I have implemented a load-balancer (or dispatcher) on FreeBSD 3.2R. It uses "DirectRouting" (see the above page) method and has weighted round-robin and weighted least-connections. I also have implemented a protocol (LASP) to detect up/down of web servers. LASP is designed with a different concept from NECP (Network Element Control Protocol) . I am sorry they are not released yet. (I am sorry I cannot release an implementation of rfc2140 yet...)
