OpenBSD Acquires IP Load Balancing

Posted by Hemos on from the move-closer-and-closer dept.

    hang on, where's the obligitory " BSD is dead" post?, if its dead, how come stuff like this is getting released, it looks like bsd is focusing on its niche market, servers, i'd say load balancing is quite important there..
