Limiting background processes

2000-11-15 Thread Rick Jansen

Hi there,

I know there's a way to limit the number of background processes a user may
have, but i don't know how that's done. Anybody who can enlighten me with a
few tips? I tried using login classes (with login.conf i believe), but that
doesn't work (and i don't know why, there aren't any errors relating to it).
I already chmod 700 nohup, and made it root.wheel.

Tips would be greatly appreciated!

Software loadbalancing (1 front-end, 2 backends)

2000-10-30 Thread Rick Jansen

What utility would you recommend for software-loadbalancing between 3 unix
boxes? Right now i'm trying to build Eddie, but i haven't got it to compile
yet. I'd like to see if there are any other utilities available.
Here's the situation:

  A
   /  \
B C

A is the front-end, FreeBSD 4.1.1-STABLE box. The back-end consists of two
linux webservers (B  C). The idea is to http-connect with A, which then
forwards the requests to B or C according to available resources on the
machines.

Thnx in advance,
Rick Jansen
