I believe the original poster is looking for the Linux-HA Project home page
at http://www.linux-ha.org/ where he can register himself for their email
list in the same way he registered here.

He may also want to look into the Red Hat Enterprise Linux solution called
the Cluster Manager. This is expensive, the above solution is a free
download.

Hope this helps,
