You could use Coherence*Web to cluster your session state, and a Foundry switch to do the load balancing. It can do sticky load balancing, and if a server fails then coherence will ensure that your other boxes still have the session state. http://www.foundrynet.com/products/webswitches/serveriron/ http://www.tangosol.com/coherence-uses-a.jsp Best Regards, James --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
