Hi,
i don't understand the need though for session persistence like this;
i'd expect a centralized session manager (msession for instance) or
just using a central database for the information would suffice.
that's how i've been doing it, not sure why everyone has all these
unique requirements to make sure they can persist sessions across IP
addresses and AOL proxies and such.
A centralized session manager would be nice, but I for one haven't been
able to find a decent solution for use with PHP. I don't know about
other systems or APIs.
Msession is dead (I still have it running, but any attempt to build a
stable daemon on an up-to-date system failed time after time) and its
successor (MCache) seems to have died before it even got to beta.
Other projects I have looked at (http://www.vl-srm.net/, for example)
are also dead, or just aren't suitable (Memcached).
I use Msession for a shared hosting cluster. The main advantage is, that
Msession has a PHP extension, so it doesn't require any PHP client
code. I need this, because I don't want to implement any dirty hacks
based on "auto_prepend_file" or something like that, which I would need
if I'd put my sessions in MySQL.
Well, you can always buy Zend Platform, which features Session
Clustering, but some of us don't have the $$$.
Any suggestions for alternatives?

seems overkill, i've never had a
problem. of course, i don't know your specific application, but it
sounds on the level of an HTTP request...

Internally, ldirectord must make decisions about where to send what

track
of where previous connections from an ip went, and send them to the same
server.
Previously I was advised to use the CF Scheduler, can anyone elaborate
further on that before I start to look at the code? I need this to
maintain that a user will have a persistent session with one user.
Any sort of timeout is optional. Once an ip gets a server it can
always get
that same server. I had previously thougth of giving the session a
timeout,
but now I'm leaning towards just having it maintain the hash forever, and
I'll just restart the director deamon every night at 2 am (or never).
Any pointers?
