No you don't. LVS-DR (i assume this is what you mean, judging by your option B's 'Bad' description) just forwards the packet to a realserver. This sees the request as if the packet would come straight from the client (eg. not through LVS; it's completely transparent). It will send the reply back straight to the client. regards, -- Léon _______________________________________________ Please read the documentation before posting - it's available at: http://www.linuxvirtualserver.org/ LinuxVirtualServer.org mailing list - [email protected] Send requests to [email protected] or go to http://lists.graemef.net/mailman/listinfo/lvs-users
