Thank you so much for the response.

Puts a lot of things in perspective coming from someone who's seen it firsthand.

I think from here on out, I need to focus on my responsibilities in the office. I work
with a lot of solid tech here, from AIX, Solaris and eventually RHEL.

I'm really weak in networking as it didn't appeal to my younger self but, working
with systems it's crucial skill. I will have to dedicate time to learning networking
and fine tune my unix administration skills. We have lots of tools and services
which tie all systems together, somehow.

For now, all side projects and ventures will have to be put on hold because
with only 24hours in a day, I cannot dedicate it all just to learning. I have to
experiences the joys of being a human. One thing that I stopped, following tech
content about new tech... This helps me to focus only on what matters now.

Thanks again for your advise.

NAME

     fair -- simple TCP load balancing service

DESCRIPTION

     fair is a load balancer for TCP connections.  It can be used to distribute incoming connections for SMTP, HTTP or any other TCP service to
     multiple hosts, distributing the load as evenly as possible.

     fair consists of two daemons.  The carrousel is the front-end; it keeps track of back-end hosts and their status, and forwards incoming con-
     nections to the back-ends in such a way that the load is distributed fairly.  The transponder runs on the back-end hosts, it registers with
     the carrousel and sends it status information.  The TCP connections forwarded by the carrousel are not sent to the transponder daemons but
     are sent directly to the desired service running on the back-end host. Both daemons share a single configuration file.

EXAMPLES

     The following example shows how to set up fair to service HTTP connections and to distribute them over back-ends in the 192.168.1.0/24 sub-
     net.

     The configuration file /etc/fair.conf contains the following:

	   WorkerService = http
	   BalancerService = http
	   AllowUDP = ^192.168.1.[0-9]+$

     On www.example.com, the front-end server receiving the incoming HTTP connections, just run:

	   carrousel

     On each of the back-ends run:

	   transponder www.example.com
