I'm able but I'm not allowed.

I think that source natting is what I can do with:

iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j SNAT --to 10.3.136.24

I know that with:

ipvsadm -A -t 10.3.136.24:80 -s rr
ipvsadm -a -t 10.3.136.24:80 -r 10.3.136.25:80 -m

the realserver respond to the client, but if you can change the source
IP of the syn packet that the director send to real server with the
director IP, the real server send the ACK,SYN to the director. I know
that this has performance problems, but this the only solution that I
know.

Thanks,
Luca
