Hi Joe,
Thanks for the reply.
I'm pretty certain that you can get LVS-DR to work on all Linux kernels
for real servers (their are some issues with doing it on a director)
but just receiving the packets via loopback using either hidden (if
patched 2.4) or arpignore (2.6) or iptables REDIRECT (always works all
kernels)
Tried using a different interface but Windows disables the adapter if it
has no link (clever).
I will keep playing with settings.
