Hi Babar, > IP route only distributes the load into two interfaces. What I am looking for is: for example you have a public IP 202.17.108.23 for ur web server and you have three web servers on which you want to load balance. what you do is assign them with private IPs 192.168.1.1-3. the linux box should be capable of translating (all incoming request) on the public IP 202.17.108.23 into the private 192.168.1.1-3 in a round robin manner. This is called L4 load balancing. Check out the Linux Virtual Server project http://www.linuxvirtualserver.org/ Best, Dave -- Dave Wreski Corporate Manager Guardian Digital, Inc.
