Hello pound masters,

       I am using pound in a production environment and I have run into some issues. First of all I will describe my setup:
   
      Web -> pound (http) -> server1 (http)
                                       -> server2 (http)
      
      I am running resin on the backends and openbsd4.1 plus pound latest on the proxy server. My problem is the following, I see in the logs errors like this:

  Sep 10 11:02:47 pound: backend xx.xx.xx.xx:80 connect: No route to host
    at which point the backend is considered down and then after the alive check is done
  Sep 10 11:03:44 pound: BackEnd xx.xx.xx.xx:80 resurrect
   
This is happening relatively often and as a partial workaround I set the Alive option to 1 to force faster resurrects. The backend servers work perfectly, I tested them when pound marks then as down.

user "pound"
group "pound"
RootJail "/var/pound"
LogLevel 3
Alive 1

ListenHTTP
                Address ext_ip
                Port    80
End
Service
        BackEnd
                Address xx.xx.xx.xx
                Port    80
        End

        BackEnd
                Address xx.xx.xx.xx
                Port    80
        End
        Session
                Type    IP
                TTL     3600
        End
End

Any help will be appreciated.
