Hi all,

As promised, I've just uploaded a new version of feedbackd: v0.5.

Feedbackd implements feedback of realserver health to a LVS director, in 
an effort to equalise load amongst the nodes in an LVS-balanced 
cluster.

The feedbackd page is at:

  http://ozlabs.org/~jk/projects/feedbackd/

Some of the changes since 0.4:

* feedbackd is not distributed, compiled, and installed as a single 
pacakge. However, the master or agent can be disabled if required.

* added an 'exec' plugin, which allows any external program to be used 
as a health monitor

* the configuration file is now in a simpler format, similar to the 
rsync or samba configuration syntax, rather than XML.

* a copy of libipvs is now included in the tarball, as there was 
previously no easy way to link to libipvs.a

* debugging options have been made simpler

The howto has also been updated for 0.5.

As always - comments, bug reports or patches are most welcome.

Happy LVS-ing,


Jeremy
