That sounds good!
But now i´m a little bit confused!
If i run the command ipvsadm on the normal kernel i got the error
#Can´t initialize ipvs: Protocol not available
#Are you sure that IP Virtual Server is built in the kernel or as module
Can you tell me what must i do to get LVS working on my SuSE machine?
Step by Step!

I would do so simple as possible!

I will than make a howto or faq if i got it to run on SuSE! Perhaps that
helps!
