Aha!  Thanks Joe - all up and running now.

It now becomes clear that in 
http://kb.linuxvirtualserver.org/wiki/LVS/TUN_mode_with_FreeBSD_and_Solaris_realserver 
the instructions on tunnelling are jsut to demonstrate it and not 
required in the actual setup.  Pretty much as it say.

Thanks again - on to more playing with lvs!
