-- Guido Marino Lorenzutti <glorenzutti@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> >My humble opinion is.. don't use squid, use haproxy. but I need a web proxy server, and not the TCP/HTTP reverse proxy server. HAProxy is a TCP/HTTP reverse proxy which is particularly suited for high availability environments Reference http://linux.die.net/man/1/haproxy As per my understandings(which might be wrong) Reverse Proxy is used to publish your servers(on your private LAN) to the Internet, so I think HAProxy is not for my case, I need a http proxy server. So do you think, I can use HAProxy in my organization ? If yes, then please provide some url/doc to install and configure it on SUSE box Regards --ms >>Muhammad Sharfuddin <m.sharfuddin@xxxxxxxxxx> escribió: >> >> peoples in my organization do online bidding, and if browsing >> interrupt/disconnect for any reason(e.g hardware failure) and restore >> within a 50 or 60 seconds.. their session terminate/disconnect, and they >> lost. >> >> we need uninteruptable web/proxy services. we need Highly Available >> Proxy Infrastructure/Services >> >> what are the possible solutions >> >> does following are the options >> 1, Clustering Squid (I think session will break) >> 2, Clustering two virtual machines, and virtual machines are running >> Squid, so if one host machine downs/crash, the other host machine >> continue running squid (I think in this case, session wont break, >> because the other host machine will run the same squid) >> >> please suggest/recommend >> >> Regards >> --ms
