I tried pen a few years ago and found it didn't work quite right - for some
reason packets were getting dropped.  Would you mind giving some insight
into configuration, Greg.  I'm a point at my current employer where a load
balancer would be a nice addition - but my budget won't (can't) support a
commercial offering like Big-IP.  Mostly, I'm looking for 'proper'
configuration methods that would allow me to run a couple of IPs on the pen
box, and support about 4 different websites behind it.  Any pointers to info
appreciated.
