Hello,

Yes, it is great to hear that we can handle sessions with a database. I
will look further inside this idea.

One question :

On "www.linuxvirtualserver.org/HighAvailability.html", it is told about
CODA filesystem. But, here, some of you are talking about NFS or SMB.
Can you explain (quickly) the pros and cons between CODA, NFS and SMB?

Note : SMB is a Windows filesystem and my servers are all under
GNU/Linux. So the question is rather on CODA/NFS.

Note2 : my goal with LVS is to do load-balancing and HA as well. (HTTPS,
sessions handling and SQL database)

Thanks.
