These are not on the same network; the reply will come via a router. The source MAC in the reply packet will always be that of the router in this context. MAC addresses do not propagate beyond a device which separates switching domains - this is a fundamental networking property. I'm having some trouble understanding what you're trying to achieve, and it appears that you're flailing around trying to get an LVS working without really waiting for people to help. It's difficult for anyone to help if you keep moving your setup around. Very simple question: have you tried to setup a basic LVS with one director and one realserver yet? If you do that, using ipvsadm, then you will get a better feel for what's required and a better understanding of the underlying principles.
