Playing around with ldirectord and UDP services

[Malcolm Turnbull <malcolm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ldirectord works fine with UDP for DNS for me with no problems,
and if I want to balance something else say  UDP:12000 thats fine as 
long as you
either do a checktype=on (i.e. no checking 'cause it conectionless)

OR.. check a relevant TCP port instead i.e.
service=http
checktype=negotiate
request="checkudpservice.php"
recieve="UDPOK"
i.e. My php page tells me if the UDP service is running...

BUT I can't just do a simple :
checkport=80
checktype=connect
Which would seem a reasonably simple thing to do ?
If you try just a stright port connect the fallback server is activated.


I'm using v1.99 by the way.. I'll try looking at the code but Perl may 
as well be Russian to me...
