Hi, 

I think that this is theoretically possible if you also
have the real servers rewrite the source address of reply
packets as the VIP.

However, you are probably a lot better off to just use LVS-DR.
It allows the (actually requires) the return path to the
real servers not to go through the Linux Director.
