I think you mean a load balancing cluster with LVS or some other tools. Here are some links that might help you. http://perlstalker.amigo.net/Gentoo/LVS.phtml http://linuxreviews.org/howtos/virtual_linux_cluster_howto/ There is also some good documentation on the LVS homepage http://www.linuxvirtualserver.org/ There are some user-space tools, too, but in my experience LVS is the fastest one. Other tools are crossroads or balanceNG.
