        Nothing is wrong in your LVS configuration.

        Did you read the LVS HOWTO? There is a hint to clear the
ident timeout in /etc/sendmail.cf. From the HOWTO:

-------------------------------------------------
identd problems:
Sendmail can't use identd when running on an LVS.
 
Edit your sendmail.cf file and set the value
Timeout.ident=0
-------------------------------------------------
 
        Is this problem solved?
