Hi!

> I was wondering how does the virtual server know that a connection is over

A connection is established with 3-way-handshake, and it should be
closed by some kind of mechanism, too (this mecanism is not perfect - 
if it fails, there are still timeouts)

LVS gets at least part of the "connection close" traffic.
