Re: Automatic DNS/HTTP autofailover ?

Get a couple of cheap Dell servers, put OpenBSD on them and use CARP  
(along with pfsync) for IP Load Balancing to your web servers. Works  
great for us.

CARP allows two machines to have the same IP, pfsync synchronizes the  
firewall rules between the two machines.

Here's some info:
