iptables -t nat -I OUTPUT -p tcp -d $VIP --dport 80 -j DNAT --to-destination 
$IP:80

where $IP = primary IP address of real server


I use LVS-DR with the VIP only configured on the LVS director and iptables
rules on the real servers.  The iptables rule above is what I use to allow the
real server to connect to itself when accessing the VIP.
