Hello , 
im using the latest release of mod_backhand with apache 1.3.20 and with 
jdk1.3 and tomcat .

Desciption of my architecture :

i have 2 web servers that make the same work , i use mod_backhand for the 
loadbalancing between them . 
and i use workers.properties in the Tomcat configuration to allow 
loadballancing between the two tomcat server .
i have one dns server using bind who makes Round Robin with 1 secondes TTL 
for the both entries ( server web 1 and server web 2 )
they are accessible from the internet under the same name www.server.com ( 
for ex)

when a client connect for the first time in www.server.com , he is redirect 
to server web 1 ( for exemple ) . then a session is created (jsessionid=... 
)in this server , and when he makes another GET , he must be redirected to 
the same server web where he has a session opened . 

when i tried to connect from the internet to www.server.com with a direct 
connection , it s work very well .... session are always retrieved .
but when i tried to surf on www.server.com using a proxy -cache server ( like 
squid ) to access to the internet , i have a problem with a JSP request .
the client isnot redirected to the right server , so he didnt retrive his 
session .

and i dont know why ? 

Any idea ? thank you from your help !!
do you thing that it is possible to  resolve this problem with installing a 
cluster for the 2 server web  ? 

Any solution ?
