[ LOL :) -> Joe Mack, can you add this statement to the Howto? It's
really cool, I like it!]
Yes, and I would even dare to say in a very advanced way. BTW, also
Cisco's LocalDirector can do a lot more than DNS round robin. But you
get the idea. A load balancer as is does not only load balance DNS
(udp/53) requests but basically all UDP and TCP related protocols but as
you see, on a network level. And I believe you seek for application
level load balancing/sharing. Since I'm nosy I still like to know what
you would want to balance, if you don't mind.
