    Hi all,

    I'm trying to setup 3 virtual machines, 1 with LVS (Linux Virtual Server) load-balancing and 2 with Tomcat+Axis (webserver and stuff).

    I'm using openSUSE 10.1 (xen 3.0.2) in all VMs and Dom0. rcSuseFirewall is stopped, iptables -l report everything "accept"'ing.

    Here's my IP configuration:
    http://pwp.netcabo.pt/pformoso/network.gif

    You can see there are 3VMs running.


    In the LB virtual machine I configure Linux Virtual Server (ipvsadm):
    ipvsadm -A -t 192.168.200.180:8080 -s rr
    ipvsadm -a -t 192.168.200.180:8080 -r 192.168.200.185:8080 -m
    ipvsadm -a -t 192.168.200.180:8080 -r 192.168.200.190:8080 -m

    I also set ip_forward:
    echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward


    Then, in dom0 I try my LVS:
    lynx http://192.168.200.180:8080
    but I only get "making http connection to xxxx..."


    Tomcat logs in both VMs don't report the connection.
    TCP sniffer in VM10/20 reports:

    Any ideas why this doesn't work? How should I do it? Any tutorial/howto help is appreciated.


    Thanks in advance,
