Is there anyway of using AuthDBI with a load balance mechanism?

If you were using round robin DNS to have multiple servers, they would
have the same hostname but multiple ip-addresses like this:

www.apache.com. IN A 172.16.0.1 
www.apache.com. IN A 172.16.0.2
www.apache.com. IN A 172.16.0.3

If you were using it this way you would probably not have any problems
with Apache::AuthDBI, 'cause the servername would always be
www.apache.com and that's what the browser would see each time and the
user would not have to reauthenticate (If you're using basic auth.).
