[lvs-users] Real servers as LVS clients

[Jason Stubbs]

Hi all,

I'm wanting to have real servers as LVS clients using LVS-NAT on the director. 
I am unable to use the internal LVS-DR method as the real servers are OpenVZ 
virtual servers utilizing a PPP like network interface, hence the director 
and servers aren't on the same logical network segment.

I've been scouring the LVS HOWTO, iproute2 and netfilter resources for hours 
now and have still not come up with a definitive answer. The best I can come 
up with is to apply the patch from below and then run squid on the director. 
Is there a better way that I'm not seeing?
