Stuart: Ahhhh, I think I see. This is a means to keep a user's session current across several servers. It basically creates a "session-like" communication between servers so that a load balancer can direct traffic accordingly without losing the user's state. Is that it?
I wouldn't call it communication, but that's the gist, yes. -Stuart
Are the server's sharing a common database? Cheers, tedd -- ------- http://sperling.com/
