Hi, I'm trying to make ldirectord work for smtp and having some issues.
Basically I have 2 servers which themselves run virtualization (via virtualbox). Server1 has a virtualized server running smtp (lets call it smtp1 -> 192.168.1.204) Server2 also has a virtualized server running smtp (lets call it smtp2 -> 192.168.1.102) ldirectord is running on Server1, ip 192.168.1.200 So I have in my config: virtual=192.168.1.200:25 real=192.168.1.102:25 masq real=192.168.1.204:25 masq service=smtp scheduler=wlc protocol=tcp #persistent=600 # #netmask=255.255.255.255 checktype=connect I have no problems getting to smtp1 and smtp2 from the ldirectord server: $ telnet 192.168.1.204 25 Trying 192.168.1.204... Connected to 192.168.1.204. Escape character is '^]'. 220 email1 ESMTP $ telnet 192.168.1.102 25 Trying 192.168.1.102... Connected to 192.168.1.102. Escape character is '^]'. 220 maillgw2 ESMTP MailCleaner (Community Edition 2010 beta 3) Sat, 05 Mar 2011 17:08:46 -0800 However, ldirectord only flows connections to the virtual server that is local to itself (smtp1). No matter what I do, it will never use the other smtp server (smtp2). ldirectord considers both as valid and adds weight to them sysadmin@vbox:/etc/bind/master$ sudo ipvsadm -L IP Virtual Server version 1.2.1 (size=4096) Prot LocalAddress:Port Scheduler Flags -> RemoteAddress:Port Forward Weight ActiveConn InActConn TCP vbox:smtp wlc -> email1:smtp Masq 1 1 1 -> mailgw2:smtp Masq 1 0 1 But again, never routes to the other smtp. So I tried removing the smtp1 from the equation, and then even though ipvsadm reports it is available for forwarding, that never works. I never get the connection. If smtp1 is in the forwarding list, then it works. Any idea what could be wrong?
