thanks for your help. the two windows 2000 are used as real servers
providing www service. now the problem is the real servers cannot ping
or connect the outside machine via the linux gateway. the LVS is in
a local network seperate from the outside world. the linux gateway/director
seems not to work. what should i do to make a linux box capable of being
a gateway? should i check some kernel compilation options or edit some
file? what are they?

thanks

James
