documentation on NCPM can be found on :
http://docs.hp.com/

>
> They have a product to do load balancing : NCPM (Network Connection
> Policy Manager), which is avalaible on HP-UX and Windows NT.
>
> In the documentation, they explain that BIND and NCPM dynamically
> exchange information for multihomed hosts : BIND sends NCPM the list
of
> IP to sort and NCPM sorts it based on the policy and returns it to
BIND
> which can send the answer back.
>
> Now how does named knows it has to talk to NCPM when it meets a
> multihomed host ??? Does HP modified the portion of the code dealing
> with IP sorting ? Is it a standard feature of named (communicating
with
> a list-sorting daemon) ?
>
> Thanks for help !
