about my question on using mod_backhand for load balancing
hi dear all,
I have an apache 1.3.26, whose task is just pass the requests
to weblogic application server and get responses from weblogic server to
clients.
I configure the apache with the help of Plug-In provided by weblogic. Now
I want to use mod_backhand to do apache server load balancing.
then I add another web server.
I try to configure mod_backhand. My question is:
(1) Do you have some experience on doing like this? please give some
information.
(2)Should I reinstall apache server with mod_backhand enabled?
thanks

You can configure and install mod_backhand after a complete Apache
installation. There are bugs triggered by Apache+mod_backhand+Solaris,
so you may want to recompile statically on that platform.

./configure --with-apxs=/path/to/your/apache/bin/apxs
make
cp mod_backhand.so /path/to/your/apache/libexec/

Then add all the necessary stuff to your httpd.conf file
