lbmethod and TCP header

[Ruben Campos <rc...@gmail.com>]

Hello everybody,

I'm part of a project that involves creating a new loadbalancer method for
the proxy module's balancer.
Following the round robin example provided with the httpd source code I
have registered a proxy_balancer_method that will select which worker is
the best.

In this method, just like the other ones, I receive the following args:
a proxy_balancer *balancer and a request_rec *r. For my method to work I
need to access the information in the TCP header. Is it possible, in any
way, to do that? If so, how can I access that information (for example,
sequence and acknowledgement numbers)?

Thank you for your time,
Best regards,

Ruben Campos.

httpd and APR don't provide that data... For httpd,
it's all at the protocol layer (HTTP).

Hi,

So, what I understood is that it is possible to get the TCP headers.
What I do not understand is your question. I'm not using mod_rewrite, I
don't even load the module on the httpd.conf. Can you explain it better?
All I need is to access the TCP header on the function that finds the best
worker from the balancer.

Again, thank you,
best regards,
Ruben Campos

Hi,
It's possible have an example of code for pass environment value to mod_rewrite through httpd.conf?
