Thanks for the prompt response Bogdan, I will have a play around with 
that and am sure I will get something working.

As something for the future / feature request, could I suggest something 
along the lines of the extra table that is used for the LCR module.

IE, at present with load balance there is the load_balancer table that 
stores destination information (mapping destinations to resources) which 
is similar in function to the gw table for lcr. Lcr also has the "lcr" 
table that maps a prefix / request uri to a gateway - adding a table 
similar to this to map request uri to resources to the load balance 
module would make routing a lot more manageable.

Something along the lines of :

id
request_uri
grp_id
resources
priority


so there would then be 2 tables for the load balance module similar to lcr.

Anyway, just a suggestion, thanks for again for the prompt response and 
the great work!

Cheers,

Ben
