Hi all,
You can do load balancing using ipchains as well.
Can't remember the program name offhand, but if I have time
I'll look it up and let the list know.
Only works if your servers are Linux of course.
Kind regards
Derek.

Servlet chaining is what the Java web server will do, and it has nothing to
do with load balancing (that I can think of).
ipchains is the command to enable firewall/packet filter/packet masquerading
capability in linux. I would suppose that it can be used to round-robin
requests or something, but I don't know how to set that up.

Re: load balancing on apache by IP CHAINING

I'm confused....'IP chainging' as the name says is at the IP (or Network)
layer, what does that have to do with Apache or any HTTP server at the
application level.
I think any such IP based load balancing technologies are inherently
unaware of the total system issues and are simply making a jugdment based
on the IP level or perhaps a specific protocol on top of IP to route the
next packet (or next session). Having said that a Perl HTTP would/could
benefit from it just as well...
