Peter/Joe and group
Thanks for the encouragement.
Yes I do agree that you get more when you do it your self. 
I initially was going to do a LVS-NAT. And actually I got that working( well
at least the http stuff) 

But I need to have sendmail and dns(sendmail will need dns) to be working
from the realservers(ssh and scp would make life easier also). I have second
nics(on the real servers) configured to work with the outside world , but I
had to take them down to get LVS-NAT working. 

I am thinking it may be better to go to LVS-DR. 

Although from Joe's email, it appears that LVS-NAT is better for security
reasons. 

I am thinking LVS-DR may be a little better for speed , since you do not
have to go back thru the director. I am currently at 11 million hits a day,
using about 3M consistently thru the pipe. So not sure if that kindof volume
enough to worry about going back thru the director.

So I am thinking of trying
http://www.linuxvirtualserver.org/VS-DRouting.html
"3 Real servers having different network routes"

Are there any other problem with going this way other than security? I am
RH9, tomcat and apache 2

Thanks for all your help

The list can help you through these issues.  IMHO unless you are in a
time-constraint situation you are better off accruing the knowledge yourself
than paying someone else.  If it comes down to it, and you trust me with a
temprary login on your server, I'm willing to log in and take a look for $0.
Maybe you can send me some beer airmail for the train today ;-)

I believe even with ipchains you can selectively allow NAT to the outside
world.

Cheers
