Awesome! It works!
With a working config in hand, I looked into getting it working with
pulse.
I compared the output of 'ipvsadm -L' after entering the literal
commands you gave me, with the output having started pulse with my
afore-pasted config file; there's a fairly substantive difference, but
I'm not sure how _important_ it actually is. Namely:
Graeme's working config:
Prot LocalAddress:Port Scheduler Flags
TCP cluster-test6.NebrWesleyan.e rr
[...snip...]
My non-working config:
Prot LocalAddress:Port Scheduler Flags
FWM 100 wlc
That pretty well explains why it wasn't working: my config had
'fwmark=100' in the config, left over from the sample config I
cannibalized, although I wasn't using (and wasn't planning on using)
firewall marks. I removed that line, and suddenly a) 'ipvsadm -L'
outputs matched; and b) the balancer worked with the pulse service.
Woot! Thanks for everyone's help on this!
