Hello,

thanks for your answer.

I've read :
http://www.austintek.com/LVS/LVS-HOWTO/HOWTO/LVS-HOWTO.services.single-port.html

I don't want to use apache to load balance, I want to route before apache with 
a load balancer.

For example :

I want to route the requests with directory /sport/ to a first group of 8 linux 
Debian servers with apache :
http://www.onedomain.com/sport/foot.php
http://www.onedomain.com/sport/basketball.php
http://www.onedomain.com/sport/golf.php

I want to route the requests with directory /tv/ to a second group of 5 linux 
Redhat servers with tomcat :
http://www.onedomain.com/tv/mtv.jsp
http://www.onedomain.com/tv/cbs.jsp
http://www.onedomain.com/tv/cnn.jsp

I want to route the requests with directory /auto/ to a third group of 6 
windows 2003 servers with IIS :
http://www.onedomain.com/auto/audi.asp
http://www.onedomain.com/auto/dodge.asp
http://www.onedomain.com/computer/mercedes.asp

It's possible to do this with Overdrive feature of Redline Networks and BigIP.

I don't think it's possible to do this in layer 4, could you detail your 
approach ?
Do you think it's possible to use KTCPVS in production environment ?

Regards,

Erwan
