Hi, Im very new to clustering. I have a perhaps very simple question: I have to provide a webhost, but with low spec computers which we have in abndance. Now, I assume that the webservice will use the single IP address x.x.x.x. However, I have not got a clue how to go about this. Should I aim to have two single computers linked via a serial interface, or should I do something more adventurous such as link them via a network interface. Am I asking on a list where Beowulf is a API and only certain programs will work with Beowulf? This is probably a question that has been asked many times. But if Beowulf can control computers and spawn instances of daemons for mail as mail arrives it would also solve many of the mail problems which we currently face in the small hosting organisation where I work. Currently I spend many hours researching this question, however fruitless.
