I also had this issue at one point in time.

Are you trying to do SSL virtual servers?

I thought I fixed my issue by ensuring that the real apache servers were 
listening on all IP addresses on port 80/443.

Subject: [lvs-users] CentOS 5 apache real servers don't respond

I am trying to setup LVS on CentOS 5.4 using piranha/pulse. Ideally (I
think) I would like to do direct routing so that I can still have my
real servers (apache machines) able to connect directly to the internet.

However, I'm not able to get the apache servers to respond correctly to
the Virtual IP requests. From tcpdump it seems like the requests are
being forwarded to the real server from the LVS but I don't get the page
returned to me in my browser, and I don't see the request being sent out
in tcpdump on the apache real server. I believe I have the virtual IP
setup correctly on the real server.

As a caveat though, if the real server responds and the apache server
response goes out on it's external IP (which would be different than the
Virual IP) -- isn't my firewall going to block that connection since it
is not the IP of the connection I originally tried to establish?

I also tried NAT briefly but was not able to get a connection there
either. Is NAT the suggested way of doing this? It seems like indirect
routing would be inconvenient/difficult if you had many virtual servers
on the real apache servers and multiple SSL sites running as well.

Thanks,
James
