Hello

i installed backhand on 2 test servers in my LAN. When i run the 
backhand-test cgi-script supplied with backhand, it works perferctly. I get 
answers from both of my servers as expected.
But when i want to load balance an other directory (/data/web/htdocs) i 
always get the answer from the server i address directly (server 1). I have 
absolutely no idea how to get this thing running.

Here is my configruation on server 1
==========================

   <Directory /data/web/htdocs>
     Backhand byAge
     Backhand byRandom
     Backhand byLoad
   </Directory>

   <Directory /usr/local/httpd/cgi-bin>
     Backhand byAge
     Backhand byRandom
     Backhand byLoad
   </Directory>

NameVirtualHost 192.168.1.21

<VirtualHost 192.168.1.21>
     DocumentRoot /data/web/htdocs
     ServerName cluster1.kiss-net.de
</VirtualHost>


Configuration on server 2
===================

NameVirtualHost 192.168.1.20

<VirtualHost 192.168.1.20>
     DocumentRoot /data/web/htdocs
     ServerName cluster1.kiss-net.de
</VirtualHost>



I assume that server 2 does not need the <Directory> configurations in the 
apache conf file, too.
I must say, that i do not have a DNS running in my LAN, so i have to adjust 
the /etc/hosts files appropriately.


http://cluster1.kiss-net.de/backhand/ delivers the following:

Any help welcome,

Uwe
