Hi Misc I have two CARP:ed openbsd machines, firewalling a couple of linux servers behind them.
3 of the linux machines run apache1 httpd:s. If need be, I can upgrade to apache2. I want to setup redundant httpd loadbalancing to these 3 machines from the openbsd machines. I know PF can do simple round-robin balancing to these machines, but I want something that can take the load of the apache running machines into consideration and shape the traffic sent to them accordingly. Would it be a good idea to use apaches own loadbalancing module, the mod_proxy_balance, and run instances of apache on the openbsd machines? I'm assuming this would mean that I have to compile apache2 myself, right? Or can anyone suggest a better way to do this? Thanks Christian
