Hi, I'm trying to balance some packets that are being locally generated
on a machine, and hitting a brick wall.

Perhaps best to draw a diagram:

*------------*--------*
|  Director  | Client |
|            *--------*
|    eth1             |
*---------------------*
     |.2
          | (10.0.0.0/8)
 /---*---*------\
 |.10    |.11   |.12
Box1    Box2   Box3

'Client' in this case is an application that opens many connections to a
single ip and port. I want to connect to a VIP, and then balance that
traffic onto several RIPs located on other machines.

This is a case not covered by the HOWTO at all,

what about
