Redundant

We’re looking into options for web server failover at my work. One option is to get Windows Server 2003, Enterprise Edition, and use its clustering features. I’m sure that there are less expensive alternatives, however.

Surely, there’s a turnkey solution that will work under Linux or FreeBSD, that can provide reverse network proxying with transparent failover? Any pointers?
