Apparently LVS doesn't look at any layer higher than the transport layer. LVS does have the ability to mask the incoming IP's so that everything coming from the same network relative to that mask goes to the same server. This will work as long as the proxy servers for the ISP are all on the same network, relative to the mask we set in LVS but if they are on different networks, we still break. It also reduces the effectiveness of the load balancer, which I don't like. I have always hated web proxies but until now, it was as a user due to consistently reduced performance as well as reliability problems. Now it's as a web server admin. I hate them more than ever. I really don't understand why ISP's can't provide persistent proxies for ports 80/443. I don't even have a way to track down the ISP's to complain about this. It's just wrong. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
