An issue keeps comming up and I have a tendency to keep blowing it off,
but now its time has come...
I understand with newer kernels you can tell a network interface to
pretend to be more than one machine (Respond as more than one IP address)...
It would appear that there are applications where it might be nice if you
could have one machine ACTUALLY perform as if it were more than one machine,
AND NOT JUST IN THE WAY OF WEB SERVICE WHICH IS AUGMENTED BY HTTP.
Has anyone set up a machine this way ? Basically a machine that has
fake roots, and more than one /etc/passwd, possibly inittab, etc., ?
How does it work ? Is there a How-To somewhere ?
