Well, this is the idea, but it uses anchors and not tables to do the magic IIRC. Review the example config file for the details. You need an external daemon polling services just to remove/readd hosts dinamically from the real servers pool, otherwise you could just put a static rule to do roundrobin on a fixed set of hosts. BTW slbd currently supports load balancing and polling of real services using only the TCP protocol. ciao Luca
