Since what I'm trying to do (balance simple www traffic) isn't that
complicated, I was hoping for some of this functionality to be inherent in
PF. Wishful thinking I guess :)

I wanted to avoid writing scripts, however, perhaps existing heartbeat /
status checking solutions can be integrated in this way.


Thank you
