But since I cannot find a solution like DRBD (which looks absolutely perfect for us, bu= t I refuse to use Linux) on FreeBSD I am forced to use mySQL replication and Master-Master appears the best way to avoid some of the problems typically faced with replication. But we still are left with replication mail store= s with postfix. In short, is there any good reliable solution to have two boxes cluster mai= l delivery so if the master fails, the secondary can keep going without any loss of services? With DRBD we could probably manage something with the replicated block device, but using FreeBSD we are stuck with mySQL Replication and no solution for mail. Any advice / suggestions would be great. We are trying to build a completely automated fail over solution for two servers using Apache, mySQL= , PHP, and Postfix within a small monthly budget. --=20 "Do the actors on Unsolved Mysteries ever get arrested because they look just like the criminal they are playing?"
