With that much expected traffic I'd setup a LVS-DR solution. With Joe's
scripts (or ultramonkey) you shouldn't have too much trouble.. especially
the second time around! :)

do whatever seems simpler, more stable, and more in line with your

I use ultramonkey + LVS-DR (single transparent proxy on RS) and am very
pleased with it. If I was starting over from scratch today I'd probably use
LVS-DR with direct code from the 'gang' + ldirectord on a 2.2 kernel (2.4's
still coming out every day it seems..). I definitely wouldn't use nat, even
on 2.4. Sorry I just don't see the advantage on a site expecting 20
million hits a day.
Good luck and happy weekend!
