Re: How to distribute Web Access?

If you are looking for an all Apache solution, 2.2 has mod_proxy_balancer.

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_proxy_balancer.html

Although in production my results are mediocre at best. Squid as a reverse proxy is the better option. No idea if it is supported under Win2k3.

Not a good idea.

You could have one apache httpd serve as a loadbalancer for a farm of
tomcat backen servers. Consult the mod_jk documentation on how to do
this.
