I have a public IP address and a FTP server that receives data, this server is working OK.
What I want is, in some mode, re send this traffic to another server FTP ( it could be in the same network ) so the information is always replicate in both servers. Is this possible?
I presume this is for load balancing and data backup. You could set up 2 servers and setup access to an external storage medium i.e. a SAN or NFS system running raid. So both servers write to the same storage pool.
I got peripheral sending data http and ftp to the server and users accessing these data from the server by web pages.
I got two servers and used a data replicator in the main server so in case of malfunction I could replace the servers and continue giving the services with data updated.
But in this way, i do not know if the process involving data acquisition from peripherals is well working on the second server, that is why i would like to replicate what arrives from the peripheral to both servers and not replicate data.
I am sure from inside my process I can resend the data to the second server but I was asking if some one have another ideas on how to do what I want.
May be inside the iptables or some routing rules in another linux process. I confess that I am not an expert on Linux systems
