if you are using iptables, I assume you're using a 2.4.x kernel. In this case
(from the HOWTO at 
http://www.linuxvirtualserver.org/Joseph.Mack/HOWTO/LVS-HOWTO-11.html#ss11.4)

"In 2.4.x masquerading of LVS'ed services is done explicitely by 
the LVS code and no extra ipchains commands need be run." 

(by ipchains, I mean no extra masquerading commands)

This piece of information is a bit hidden I'll admit and I'll find a better 
home for
it in the next version of the HOWTO.
