Hi all,

we are looking for somebody to extend stunnel's multiple connect functionality a bit as of: - adding the ability to send a configurable string to each "connect" and compare the answer against an configured expectation string - the expectation should also be able to be interpreted as an regular expression. - the testing interval should be configurable - an alternative port should be configurable - it should be possible to call a script instead of doing a connection with the connect string provided as a parameter. - a way of monitoring might all paths might be good (i.e. writing a status file on regular basis)

These things are pretty much the same things that LVS ( http://www.linuxvirtualserver.org/) provides. But we would like to reduce the complexity in our environment a bit.

If somebody is interested to implement this feel free to contact me. If possible with an amount of expected reward.
