I'm guessing this is some LVS specific terminology that someone made up because they did not read the literature before writing their code? Is this the DSR or "Direct Server Return" configuration? If so, the answer is that you need to specify the LVS as the default return route, and not answer locally, even though it appears to be a local net. This can be handled using explicit routes for the alias IP addresses. You *did* put the alias IP addresses on the loopback interface, and turn of ARP'ing for them, right? If you need more help, probably the correct place to ask is not the -current list, but the -net list (after you replace the terminology "LVS-Direct" with it's real name; I'm only guessing you meant DSR here). -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
