Hello all, It has been my understanding from reading LVS documentation, and from out latest internal sniffer testing, that the packet-rewriting done by Linux Virtual Server works like this: ---incoming request---->LVS----->RS <--outgoing reply-------LVS<-----RS and what our latest sniffer trace found is the packet outgoing has the IP address of the Real Server (RS) but the MAC address of the LVS box. Additionally, we've noted (regarding our email system) that the outgoing packets appear to come from the IP address of the eth0 device (not the LVS eth0:1 IP address). How does this strike you all, compared to how LVS is "advertised" to work? Thanks Peter __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
