I'd like to set up a load balancing and resiliance system to load balance between a bunch of web servers running Apache tomcat (slow java stuff). Ideally I'd like each client IP to get mapped to a certain server and keep that mapping throughout the entire session. I'd also like to have some means of detecting a server that goes down and yank it from the load balancing pool. I do understand I may have to write some code on that side. Any suggestions to an approach? Can Netgraph do something like this? Baldur
