Hope someone here can give me some pointers. I've set up a ldirectord 
LinuxHA cluster.

When I start it up its a simple set up. I have one VIP pointing to 2 
backend servers and everything seems to come up ok.

Output of ip addr: (weird set up I know - not my network tho just trying 
to get this working)
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 16436 qdisc noqueue
     link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
     inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo
2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast 
qlen 1000
     link/ether 5c:f3:fc:78:c9:98 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
3: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop qlen 1000
     link/ether 5c:f3:fc:78:c9:9a brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
4: usb0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop qlen 1000
     link/ether 5e:f3:fc:7b:c9:9b brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
5: eth0.101@eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue
     link/ether 5c:f3:fc:78:c9:98 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
     inet 172.28.89.46/25 brd 172.28.89.127 scope global eth0.101
     inet 172.28.191.155/25 brd 172.28.191.127 scope global eth0.101 
<--- This is the VIP

The VIP above points to the backend servers 172.28.191.139 and 
172.28.191.140.

Without HA running I can telnet to the backend servers to the proper 
port (8080 in this case). As soon as I start up HA and ldirector, I am 
unable to telnet to the backend servers on port 8080 on the node that is 
primary. I can telnet to them on the backup node and on any other server 
on the network but not from the primary node.

I don't have access to the backend servers but the SA tells me he set up 
the loopback with an alias to the VIP as I asked and he also said he 
added the appropriate entries to prevent the arp issues into sysctl.conf 
on the backend servers.

So what the heck is going on? Why does HA suddenly make it impossible to 
connect to the backend servers from the primary node?

Another problem I have is that I cannot telnet to the VIP on port 8080 
no matter what node it is running on. I think if I can resolve the 
problem above, this one will go away too.

Thanks
