Thanks for the suggestion. I had thought of that, but all my front-end servers are also back-end servers. (I'm just letting the users come in on any server -- usually the correct one -- and want to transparently connect them to the correct back-end if they happen to come into the wrong server.) So, even with just 5 servers, that's 20 tunnels to keep afloat through reboots, etc. In principle no problem, but it's a lot of balls in the air.
