That's alright; I got most of my questions answered, I
think :-)

Actually, I just tested this today, and the private
IP's can all talk to each other, so I'm good there :-)
I would like to make a suggestion for hopefully the
next release?
In our case, our preferred setup, for the real servers
(for now, at least) is to have one live server and one
hot standby (so if the live one becomes unavailable,
the hot standby goes into action).
I had no problem with the Linux servers with this,
using "heartbeat", but one of the reasons I am turning
to LVS is for the Win2K machines... I was reading ovet
the ipvsadm man page, in particular the possible
weightings, however I did not see anything like
"priority" balancing, whereby all requests would go to
a particular server, unless it was unavailable, then
it would go to the next one witht he lowest rating,
and so on. The closest I saw was 'weighted least
connection', which I assume would still mean that some
requests would go over to the "secondary" server.
The suggestion: would it be possible to add a
"priority load balancing" weighting option in one of
the next releases, so that all the requests go to the
server witht he lowest rating, and if ti becomes
unavailable, the requests go the next lowest-rated
server, and so? I don;t imagine it would be too hard
to implement?
Thoughts?
TIA for all your help!
Alan
