Serving > same domain > over more that one server and what I have to do for this Many servers, One domain: One way is to assign more than one IP address to the domain name (try nslookup of www.msn.com - they currently have two IPs assigned). I think a browser will then choose the IP randomly when sending the request. If each server has access to the same data, it's transparent to the user. Otherwise, you need a load-balancing proxy in front of the webservers (see: http://e-docs.bea.com/platform/docs81/deploy/loadbal.html for background) > and secondly > how to serve a domain out of the apache root of more than one server. Not sure I entirely understand this... Do you mean how do you keep /usr/local/www on server1 synchronised with /usr/local/www on server2? (ie, two physical disks) One solution is, don't. Put the data in one place and then have one of the servers mount the disk remotely (see http://nfs.sourceforge.net/). Otherwise, you need some disk mirroring (see http://people.freebsd.org/~rse/mirror/) Rgds, Owen Boyle Disclaimer: Any disclaimer attached to this message may be ignored. > Can someone provide some advice on doing this.
