Subject:   load balancing solution?

i need a quick load balance solution that will provide 1 ip on the front
end and round robin balancing on the back end for 2 to 4 servers, as a
proof of concept for a project ( and as a way to sneak FreeBSD into the
workplace :) .  it sounds like i might be able to build this with nat and
bind... but i think i remember that ipnat would translate requests
_before_ bind would see them, whicn is the opposit of the behavior i want.

i looked through the ports collection, and it looks like pen does 'real'
load balancing, but for this project, i actually need round-robin (trying
to demonstrate that the servers on the back end successfully share their
session data)

dows pen also do round-robin, or does anyone know of any other quick
solutions to this problem?

thanks!

ben
