I am chasing a problem now where persistent mode seems not to work. I'm using
firewall marks and NAT. consider the following snoop trace where 172.16.0.146
is the client, and morrist-2 and morrist-3 are real servers. The initial
transactions occur with morrist-3, but suddenly, the MOUNT request goes to
morrist-2!:
172.16.0.146 -> morrist-3.cae.crosstor.com TCP D=111 S=907     Ack=3651063116

The next line is WRONG!!!!!!  Should be going to morrist-3

Any Ideas before I go and try to understand the ipvs scheduling code?
