How to build lvs on kernel 2.4.5?

["Xiong Zhao" <xz@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

i want to use a linux 2.4.5 box as director and two windows 2000
as real servers. i patch the kernel with linux-2.4.5-ipvs-0.8.1.patch,
but which version of ipvsadm should i install? where is the explaination
of the command parameters of ipvsadm? is there anything to
do on windows 2000 besides setting the director as gateway? how to 
make a linux box work as a gateway? should i check any kernel options
or something else? now the two realservers can ping either two NICs
on director, but cannot ping the outside computers. brief and clear
suggestion is in need. i'm almost confused with the howto.

thanks very much
