Glassfish and SJSWS High-Availability & Failover

Hello...
I have a very simple question:
I want to deploy an application into an environment that is
highly-available and give to clients a single IP address and/or URL.
I can setup Glassfish as a cluster with a SJSWS (and load-balance
plugin) in front of the cluster to make the application server fail over
transparent.
However, the web server itself is a single-point of failure. Is there a
way to setup the web servers as a cluster under a single (virtual) IP
address?
I'm going to be deploying the system in Linux boxes.

thanks,
Daniel.
