Hi Edward, I believe that you could achieve this on the backend using fwmark virtual services, perhaps at the granularity of one per customer. What I am thinking is, that when you want to make a customer sticky, you create a fwmark virtual service for them accordingly. Otherwise connections get handled by a (more usual) generic virtual service. As fwmarks are added by iptables rules, and iptables rules have an explicit order, I think you could get the control that you are after. _______________________________________________ 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
