I have read that some http servers (probably some machines at NCSA)
are actually a cluster of servers attached to the same ethernet. Client
transparently contact one of the servers. I would like to know how this
is achieved, e.g.

  i) by supplying different IP translations for the same name;
 ii) by a clever use of ARP
iii) by some other technique which I do not know

	Thanks
	Luigi
