Thanks for the reply - sorry for not specifying much. I am running standard services on 2 boxes - apache, mysql, postfix, asterisk. I use one of the boxes as a secondary - if first box fails - it should go to standby box. I was looking for a hardware solution or if there is a service on the internet that can redirect requests of service to one box if the other box is down. I do not want to run another linux box - because that might go down as well. I need something to act a reliable director of services - such as a load balancer. thanks mjh -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
