I assume by all this you mean solving the ARP problem. If so, take a look at this section of the HOWTO which is specific on 2.6 kernels: http://www.austintek.com/LVS/LVS-HOWTO/HOWTO/LVS-HOWTO.arp_problem.html#2.6_arp In a nutshell: you don't need to patch anything, just set some proc values and bring up a loopback device (in that order). -- 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
