There are a couple of ways to do this - one is to use a Cisco Local
Director, and sit it in front of a couple of boxes, it loadshares,
switches over if one fails, that sort of thing. proxy.connect.com.au
does this. Another way, if your clients are using Netscape, is to build
a proxy autoconfig file that does this. I have no idea whether other
browsers support this. (Wasn't there going to be an Internet Explorer
for Unix released?)
