Actually, since its NAT, the realservers get an IP address on another subnet that's exclusive to the NAT setup. Then the IPVS director does the NAT and routing, sending the requests and responses out to the rest of the network with its own IP address. The issue I'm running into is that requests for Windows domain stuff in NT4 domains is done of UDP ports 137 and 138. There's an in-kernel conntrack helper for requests on port 137, but not port 138. This means that when the NT servers send responses to WINS requests on port 138 the IPVS director does not know what to do with these responses, so they just get discarded. Trying to figure out how to deal with that - there don't really seem to be any helper applications for this currently available for Linux. -Nick

I have no experience with VMs, but I would expect that the windows realservers will have the same IPs as before they were put behind a director. Why can't they see the windows domain?
