Now, honestly as I said before in this thread, I did try keepalived, but 
I wasn't very satisfied by it.. When I got both nodes up and running, it 
constantly made noise in the logs that would fill the hard drives up 
quickly. keepalived is what the company's hosting co-lo provider I work 
for recommended and uses on their setup. I'd rather a method such as 
pacemaker because of the CRM aspect of it., It's not /just/ a router, 
but the intention is to make use of the crm more fully in the end.
