Can't do that with current balance rc-script, since it requires -b and -b cannot accept numeric ipv4 addresses, and I don't have separate names for the two ip addresses on the NIC. >How-To-Repeat: /usr/local/bin/balance -b 192.168.1.208 8282 other.host.name:80 >Fix: fix balance not to expect ipv6? or fix balance rc-script not to absolutely require an inbound address by removing the -b $hostname switch >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
