If you do not limit yourself to Linux, you can easily use PF (pf+pfsync+CARP) to do the job. http://www.openbsd.org/faq/pf/carp.html
Thanks for the pointer. OpenBSD indeed is a formidable candidate for such stuff, but I'm trying hard to get around to unify all our Linux servers to one distro (Debian Etch) instead of the mish-mash we have now, and introducing yet another platform to track wouldn't quite cut it. Incidentally, I found the company which funded ct_sync - Astaro (astaro.com) which sells appliances or software to do just that (plus anti-virus/anti-spam staff, if you pay a subscription). You can buy a box to run it or install their software on a regular Linux. Anyway, talking to the guy who builds the Debian packages for conntrackd and he says that they work for him for months now so I might go this way. Cheers, --Amos
