Is anyone doing any type of failover or load balancing between two hobbit

separate servers that I've installed Hobbit onto, and am having clients
reporting to both, and they both are "clients" for each other, but I just
want to make sure I'm doing it the right way, and see if there might be a
better way.
I'm currently using hobbit in a failover scenario, but only one hobbit
server is up at a time. There are 3 boxes [small freebsd PC's] acting
in an active/passive/passive mode with the clients reporting to the
virtual IP. The data is rsync'ed every minute so the data loss would
be minimal.
