        Long ago, far away, when I owned a managed server hosting
company... We used Foundry load balancers to balance web requests,
and just "round robin + quickest" instead of "sticky". We set them up
for "Direct Server Return". So even though the balancer was at
.254, the server might be at .10, or .22, etc. The number of emails
we'd get from people telling us we were trying to hack their machines
with our servers was outrageous in the beginning, but soon trailed off.
Not sure if the webmaster decided to handle it, or people didn't pay as
much attention.
