Do you get always the same index-page again or do you get an 
error message (page not found...)? 
Did you set the default gateway to 10.0.3.5 (your 
Router/Client, very important for Direct Routing) 
  
We had similar problems using a completely diferent 
configuration (Slackware, 2.2.16, 2 directors / 4 realservers...) 
One thing we found out is that in some cases the VIP on one 
(and always the same, don't know why) realserver took over the VIP from the 
director. So the VIP was bound to only ONE realserver, so we got always the same 
index page from this server :( 
I think we had problems with the subnet mask (won't get to be 
255.255.255.255). 
We didn't find a special reason for it, but after we changed 
the VIP from dummy to dummy0:0 and restarted a few times, it was all good 
again. 
  
One other thing was, that we had a failure after "flooding" 
the director's NIC (webbench :-) 
We had "mon" running to check the realservers over the same 
NIC (on the director), so after some time of testing we got service failures for 
one client (which is in your case about 50% ;-) 
  
I don't know if this could help you (I learned very much about 
LVS and Heartbeat by reading logfiles...), that's just my 
experience.

  0.2.11 
  
  Hi,
  I'm trying to implement a two box lvs cluster with 
  failover. I'm very close to having this working.  I have heartbeat 
  installed and configured to use both lans with UDP.  I test that the 
  VIP (10.0.3.3) switches when I disconnect either server.  They switch 
  on a VIP of eth:0. I then moved on to the load balancing 
  portion.
  This is what I 
  have:
                  
  client 
  10.0.3.5                        
  |                        
  |             
  -------------------------    
  10.0.3.0/24             
  |                        
  |    eth0     | 
  10.0.3.1               
  | 10.0.3.2           box 
  1                    
  box 2    eth1     | 
  192.168.1.1            
  | 
  192.168.1.2             
  |                        
  |             
  --------------------------   
  192.168.1.0/24                 
  (cross-over cable)
  Box 1 and 2 are both directors and servers. 
  
  I'm using the latest 2.4.X patches (Apr 20th) and ipvsadm 1.17 I 
  installed the following on both boxes:
  ipvsadm -A -t 10.0.3.3:80 -s 
  rr ipvsadm -a -t 10.0.3.3:80 -r 10.0.3.1:80 -g -w 1 ipvsadm -a -t 
  10.0.3.3:80 -r 10.0.3.2:80 -g -w 1
  I have apache listening on 10.0.3.3 
  and setup different index pages so I could tell which real server I was 
  hitting.
  I fired it up and it kinda works.  It will switch back 
  and forth a few times then hang.  If I hit stop it will then work 
  again a few more times.  Looking at the activity LEDS on the hub I 
  noticed they were on solid between the two boxes.
  I read as much as 
  humanly possible of the HOWTO and figured it might have something to do 
  with the "arp problem" so I added the "hidden" patch to both kernels, 
  changed the VIP for the real servers to 10.0.3.4 (left it 10.0.3.3 for the 
  Directors/HeartBeat), and ifconfig'd dummy0 on both boxes to 10.0.3.4, and 
  turned hidden on in /proc/sys/net/...dummy0
  I still get the packet 
  storm.
  I'm going to try to sniff the network and see what's going on 
  but I'm rapidly approaching areas where I'm a total novice.
  I think 
  there must be something stupid I'm doing 
  ?
  Thanks, Doug
