Hi Joseph,
Hi Ludo,
Thanks for the patches. I put out a new version of
the HOWTO this weekend and didn't wait for your reply, in
case I didn't get any more time for the HOWTO for a while.

I'll fix up your section for the next HOWTO.
According to the HOWTO text, it seems you misunderstood
the purpose of my patch a little bit: I don't provide a
new schedular, but a new director.
Currently the definition of a scheduler that I'm using is
code that changes the routing tables in the director to load
balance the incoming packets. Your code fits this
definition. Am I missing something?
Anyway, I changed my patches a bit (See patches in
attachment)
thanks, will include your text in the next write-up.
One of the remaining problems for multipath routing under Linux is the
lack of flexibility on the scheduling of these multiple defaultroutes.
The normal multipath routing only provides a weight factor, but no
further setup parameters.
How did you get the director to accept packets for 0.0.0.0/0
as local?

For this problem the patches introduce a new director, called
LVS/Reinject.
Do you want your code in the HOWTO to be called "Reinject"
rather than say "multigateway"?
Joe
