Hi, Question on the side: What is your preferred solution to have such a shared Partition (specifically for Kannel here)?

Just few thoughts: If you are setting up two server nodes in the cluster why don't you double all the processes? Two nodes with installed apache, mysql, bearerbox, smsbox.... The cluster nodes will have separate IP addresses but for the outside world they will share one IP address which is "attached" to the active node. Both severs will have one system partition and there will be one partition with config and data files which will be mounted to the active node. When ever the active node fails the software which makes the fail over will transfer the running processes to the standby node and mount the data partition to the standby node. This way you will not have problems with the smsbox connecting to the bearerbox, you'll have one connection to the SMSC, and there will be no pending messages if one bearerbox fails the other one on the second node will take over and will read the same data files BR, Jovan -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
