Hi - I just came across LVS and it looks like a great package. However I am a total Linux newb (coming over from a decade+ on Windows) and I must admit this is way way over my head so I'm trying to get my arms around it. A few questions if you would be so kind:
For reference I am using Fedora 8 core on i386. 1) According to the LVS web site and changelog it looks like the latest released LVS software is 3-4 years old. Am I reading this right? The project seems very popular so I am thinking there may have been several updates since 2004/2005? Am I missing something? 2) I have absolutely no idea how to go about getting this installed and up and running on my Linux box, really. This is despite having read through the documentation. It looks like I am supposed to start by getting "The IP Virtual Server Netfilter module for kernel 2.6". My my Linux box as root I did wget http://www.linuxvirtualserver.org/software/kernel-2.6/ipvsadm-1.24-6.src.rpm to get this software. >From there I really had no idea of what to do next. The Compiling ipvsadm on >different Linux distributions at wiki is talking about RedHat 3 and 4 which no >longer seem applicable for those on Fedora 8. Unfortunately this is all just way way over my head. Is there a complete idiots guide to getting up and running with LVS on Fedora 8? Thanks so much! ____________________________________________________________________________________ You rock.
