Mailing List Archive: I just can not start backhand????

hi Mr. Teo and other users,
I have 2 apache servers with mod_backhand installed.
Just did it according to the docs. I feel quite confused when I go to
configuring mod_backhand in httpd.conf.
and After that, I can not start backhand.

apache1 : IP: 150.160.87.85
apache2 : IP: 150.160.87.88

Here is my configure in httpd.conf (both of the 2 mathine are configured
same.),
...
<Directory "/var/backhand/cgi-bin">
AllowOverride None
Options None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
Backhand byAge
Backhand byRandom
Backhand byLogWindow
Backhand byLoad
</Directory>
<IfModule mod_backhand.c>
UnixSocketDir /var/backhand/backhand
MulticastStats 150.160.87.255:4445,1
AcceptStats 150.160.87.0/24

<Location "/backhand/">
SetHandler backhand-handler
</Location>
</IfModule>
...
any thing wrong?

thanks

The byRandom, byLogWindow is a technique used for clusters of size. Two
machines is hardly that. I would use something like:
Backhand byAge
Backhand byLoad 1

That isn't a multicast address, it is a broadcast address, you should
remove the ,1 from the end.
