Matt, and all,
I am sorry to write again, however I was re-reading
your email below regading use of an IPTABLES rule for
rewriting the packet IP, as opposed to it being the
mob of LVS NAT. The IPTABLES rules I have on my LVS
hosts are as follows - and I would like to know on
which host (LVS or real) and WHAT SPECIFIC IPTABLES
rule you recommend or refer to - please do specify???
(I think I was a little confused by your statement.)
## Sets up the masq
iptables -v -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 100.200.10.0/24
-j MASQUERADE
## Use this for sendmail
ipvsadm -A -t 100.200.13.26:25 -s wlc
ipvsadm -a -t 100.200.13.26:25 -r 100.200.10.37:25 -m
ipvsadm -a -t 100.200.13.26:25 -r 100.200.10.38:25 -m
I included your email (below) if you need
to re-read what you wrote to me (this was
regarding true NAT and rewriting the packet).
Thanks again,
Peter
