As a "Real" life update:
The revival of Horms' posting, which I overlooked a month ago, was
a lifesaver for us.
We had a monster load distribution problem, and spread 4 virtual IP
numbers across 10 'real' boxes (running Roxen, a fantastic web platform).
The ipchains-REDIRECT feature works perfectly, without any of that arp
aggravation! A PII_450 held up just fine at 20 megabits/s of HTTP -REQUEST-
TRAFFIC!
Kudos to Wensong, Horms and the rest of the LVS contributors! And thanks!
