We use the Foundry Server Iron. (http://www.foundrynet.com) It was a little bit of a chore to setup, but its working great for load balanceing all of our virtual domains. (600+). We currently load balance over 2 servers, and we're looking at adding a third. Performance wise, it's pretty unbeatable for the price. It balances by port, not by ip, so you can fail certian ports on certian servers without anyone noticeing. (i.e. fail just ftp not web) -Jake Systems Administrator Front Range Internet 970.224.3668 x221 On Mon, 2 Aug 1999, Lutz Rabing wrote: > > We have the problem to split the traffic to a busy website on two or > more webservers.
