I'm not mad :) I just suspect that as you are already happily
using LVS-NAT for other services this is the best choice for
your FTP service.
All you need to do is set up a virtual service on the ftp port
and insert the ip_vs_ftp module into the kernel. It should work
from there. I think there is quite a lot of information on how
to use FTP with LVS in the HOWTO.

That is an excellent plan :)
