Also are there any ways/programs so that when I update the site on one 
server, the same site on the other server will automatically get the 
updated content, so I wouldn't have to upload to both servers everytime I 
updated my site?

Hi Todd,
 
I can't help with the load-balancing question. It might help you to know 
that the Cobalt's pretty well follow a standard of the RedHat 6.2 distro. 
You should keep that in mind with all software and configuration requirements.

For keeping multiple sites "syncronized," use rsync: 
http://rsync.samba.org. Do some searching through the archives (of this 
list group) for rsync over SSH authentication. Someone recently posted a 
very concise, complete howto on this subject in July. This is the fastest, 
most efficient, most secure way of doing what you want. I use it for 
backing up all my servers.

Cheers,
Glenn

Hi,
Thanks for the replies.  I read somewhere that it would be easiet to do Round Robin DNS Load.  And I was just wondering if I need to use my own DNS to do this.  Because currently my DNS is pointed to my webhost...
