you have to turn on one of the options in Networking before you see the
ipvs stuff (I forget which it is)

here's the kernel Network config for an earlier 2.2 kernel. It will
be similar to 2.2.17. The * down the
left side are recommended for a first install of ipvs


           [*] Kernel/User netlink socket
           [*] Routing messages
           < > Netlink device emulation

           [*] IP: multicasting
           [*] IP: advanced router
           [ ] IP: policy routing
           [ ] IP: equal cost multipath
           [ ] IP: use TOS value as routing key
           [ ] IP: verbose route monitoring

           [ ] IP: firewall packet netlink device
*          [*] IP: transparent proxy support

           --- Protocol-specific masquerading support will be built as modules.
*          [*] IP: ICMP masquerading
           --- Protocol-specific masquerading support will be built as modules.
*          [*] IP: masquerading special modules support

*          [*] IP: TCP syncookie support (not enabled per default)
           --- (it is safe to leave these untouched)

It's probably happened to most of us. It
happens everytime you run on a kernel without the lvs patch configured :-)
