<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Greg,</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Ok, I see the new topology in your
last post</font>
<br>
<br><tt><font size=2>XO <-> XS/default gateway <-> Squid <->
Internet </font></tt>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Q1- Are we having two XS machines and
one Squid box, or is it one and one as shown in the diagram?</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Q2 - Are we going to try to have the
same XS-150 build for both but just activate certain features on each,
or try to have customized install scripts?</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">In other words, we could take the XS-150
base, install MySQL, install PHP modules, install Moodle, Install Squid.
Then on the XS we activate MySQL and Moodle, be don't activate Squid,
and on the Squid box, we don't bother to turn on MySQL and Moodle, but
there are there as backup for each other just in case?</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Q3 - Do we want to consider a failure
scenario where one or the other box fails, and run everything from a single
machine? In other words, the box is bilingual, can be either a XS
or a Squid or both, and configured with easy to use scripts or PHP webpages.</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Q4 - Will XS reverse proxy its own server
content? I have been looking into eAccelerator and a few others that
can help speed up the MySQL calls.<br>
</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I have been told I will get my Active
Antenna sometime this week, so will be able to run a better test this weekend.</font>
