Re: MTA (SMTP/POP) + LVS

[Harald Nesland <harald@xxxxx>]

Just remember, the LVS-director would be single point of failure (unless 
you've got more of them). A round-robin solution in the nameserver 
records could be safer. Though it's alot easier to control the LVS 
cluster. (Regarding DNS zone refresh, timeouts..)
