Hi Joseph! thanks soooo much for your help. Ok cool, I just use lo, BUT, ummm i'm confused on how the real server knows how to get back to the VIP? since the VIP is on a completely different network. I would assume, you would put another address onto lo? instead of creating a new file lo:0?

Now you can do it with lo. and on the real servers I add this: net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1 net.ipv4.conf.lo.arp_ignore = 1 net.ipv4.conf.lo.arp_announce = 2 net.ipv4.conf.all.arp_ignore = 1 net.ipv4.conf.all.arp_announce = 2 > The realservers already know that the VIP is local and you > don't need to add a route to it (despite many people/distros > putting one in). > how do the RS know that the VIP is local? thanks soooo much for your help.. i'm going through sooo much howtos.. trying to coordinate with regards to my kernel: 2.6.18-53.1.4.el5 Will _______________________________________________ LinuxVirtualServer.org mailing list - [email protected] Send requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or go to http://lists.graemef.net/mailman/listinfo/lvs-users
