Each of the 3 central weblogin servers is running Apache, the CGI, 
cosignd, and monster.  Additionally, they host /cgi-bin/logout and 
/services/ (our rudimentary "service menu").

The services are configured to use "weblogin.umich.edu" as the weblogin 
server and they convert this name into all of its A records to 
establish connections for 'CHECK.'  We do not actually use round-robin 
at the service level as the goal here is thoroughness.  However, user's 
are directed to one of the 3 weblogin servers for LOGIN and REGISTER 
using DNS round robin.
