Linux Virtual Server 0.6
Rob Thomas - February 03rd 1999, 05:39 EST
The Linux Virtual Server project consists of (currently) two parts - the
Load Balancing service (Freshly Named LinuxDirector, in
honour of the Cisco LocalDirector) and Linux NAT. This currently only
applies to 2.0.3x Kernels, and does not work with IP
Chains (yet!). There is a mailing list set up, to subscribe please send
email to:
majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxx
with the message body consisting of the words:
subscribe linux-virtualserver
Changes: From the mailing list...
The latest virtual server patch version 0.6 was released on February 2,
1999. This is final beta version, the "local node" feature
was added and some codes for virtual server via IP tunneling was optimized.
Thank Peter Kese (peter.kese@xxxxxx) for idea of
"Two node Virtual Server" and his "local node" prototype patch for virtual
server via IP tunneling. Thank Robert Thomas
(rob@xxxxxxxxxx) for kicking me to release this version and his perfect
name "LinuxDirector" for the load balancer running
ippfvs, I love this name. :-)
