# 
# Hi all,
# 
# Can anyone here recommend any HA software for FreeBSD? I've only ever
# used things like squid as an accelerator to a bunch of FreeBSD web
# servers. While this works to keep webservices alive, it doesn't help
# with e-mail, ftp, etc.

I've used HUT with some success (www.bsdshell.net/hut_fvrrpd.html), or
just perl scripts on machines with multiple NICs.  There are other
accelerators too (like pound) but I have always been happy with squid,
combined with some form of fake (internal/split horizon) DNS.
