fine. The different netmasks is not a problem then?

Correct.   The network configuration was pre-existing.

correct. traceroute from RIP->CIP should not go through the
director.


So that part is configured correctly.  That's good.  So I guess the
big question is, how am I able to get packets sent to the RIP to be
sent back to the CIP without going through the DIP for the return?

read the packet flow diagram in the HOWTO for LVS-DR. The reply packet from the realserver is VIP->CIP. It comes from lo and after looking up the realserver's routing table, the realserver sends it via the RIP to the default gw, which can be anything except the director.
