Ray,
Yes LVS DR works fine on windows...
I've got an open office doc (explaining setup) in the download section
of www.loadbalancer.org
but basicaly :
Set up a Microsoft Loop Back adapter
Give it the VIP, & normal subnet
under advanced set the priority to 254...
And if you don't want it to screw up your NETBIOS browsing
then remove Client for MSoft Networks from the adapter
and also remove file & print sharing from the adapter...
www.crocus.co.uk has been running on 5 NT2K servers like this for 2 months..
Regards,
Malcolm.

does Windows 2000 as the realserver work with lvs-dr? and how well does it
work with the arp issue?
i guess the reason why i didn't think of using lvs-dr is i've only read so
much of the howto and didn't notice anything about lvs-dr working with
windows (don't exactly see it at this point either, but its a lot to read....)

Ray,
I might be missing something but why don't you just use LVS - DR ?
i.e.
Firewall
Switch

can it be done? and better yet, should it be done?
just thought i should ask before i get too far into attempting to set it
up. we have a few w2k webservers all at the same physical location, and i
was asked what it would take to cluster them and have them all serve up
the same set of webpages. while googling for answers i wasn't able to
find much of anything for windows, but a lot for linux.
since W2k doesn't to tunneling (as per something in the howto) and since
NAT can bottleneck the system, is it possible to setup an lvs-tun to an
lvs-nat? (or even lvs-dr to an lvs-nat)
________ ________
|lvs-tun |- - -|lvs-tun*|
|________| |________|
+----------+
____+___ ____+___
|lvs-nat1| |lvs-nat2|
|________| |________|
and possibly on the same physical box? (without virtual pc software, or
linux in linux)
________ ________
|lvs-tun | |lvs-tun*|
|lvs-nat1|-|lvs-nat2|
|________| |________|
*secondary director
(and then from the lvs-nat to a set of w2k webservers)
