Proxy throughput Round-Robin

[Adinarayana Kadiyam]

Hi ,     In the Proxy Throughpult Round-Robin method for load balancing feature available in Apache web server,  The mapping rules are like this.   RewriteEngine on RewriteMap    lb      prg:/path/to/lb.pl RewriteRule   ^/(.+)$ ${lb:$1}           [P,L]   Where lb.pl is some thing like this.   #!/path/to/perl ## ##  lb.pl -- load balancing script ## $| = 1; $name   = "www";     # the hostname base $first  = 1;         # the first server (not 0 here, because 0 is myself) $last   = 5;         # the last server in the round-robin $domain = "foo.dom"; # the domainname $cnt = 0; while (<STDIN>) {     $cnt = (($cnt+1) % ($last+1-$first));     $server = sprintf("%s%d.%s", $name, $cnt+$first, $domain);     print "http://$server/$_"; } ##EOF##   It appends the path passed to it and constructs a new URL.   Is there any way In which I can send the cookie information to this perl script  as STDIN ?   Regards, Adi.       ********************************************************* Disclaimer This message (including any attachments) contains confidential information intended for a specific individual and purpose, and is protected by law.
