Unix to LINUX
quick question that may bring long answers
I am currently looking into porting an existing Recital system from Unix to Linux. possibly not a good idea
Basically;
Would i be better shooting myself in the foot now? or
do you know if there would be a fair expense due to buying Linux and the necessary REcital programs?
Is it true that I will have to recompile all the code under Recital Linux in order to run it?
Does Linux 'work' in a similar way to Unix with File Systems, and Logical Volumes?
Any advice would be welcome, including 'dont do it!'
cheers all

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
