I don't believe it either.  :)  I know it *says* that it's there, but I
prefer knowing by using the hidden patch...  I've verified that none of the
realservers are arping to that IP address by shutting it off on the
director, and was unable to see it on the LAN.

Sorry about that, it was about 2:30 in the morning, and my head wasn't quite
right...  I ended up working on the problem until about 6:30.  :D

Hm...  Yeah, I don't know what the problem is either...  I've tested by
removing the IP from the director, and I'm not getting to the server at all,
so the LVS is definitely working and forwarding the packets to the right MAC
addresses...  But only if I redirect to the public IP addresses instead of
the private IP addresses.

I've attached an updated network diagram that shows how things really are,
sorry, the last one was missing a bit...  :(  The limitations of ascii and a
tired brain contributed to that other diagram.  :)
