Hi Daniel. Yes, we do a box called the 'S1000', which does use a slightly
modified LVS kernel software (ip_vs). We modified ip_vs to get it to play
nicely with iptables on the same box, so you don't need a seperate
firewall/vpn box.
There is a lot of information on the box at http://www.antefacto.com, but
contact me off list if you have any more specific questions, such as
locating a reseller etc. Being a standard load balancer, it will work fine
for streaming media as long as it is a standard TCP or UDP protocol.
