piranha = LVS I do believe- maybe some management scripts are different. I have been using LVS for 5 years now. It works great! (Help me understand... I am not an iptables guru but I have done some to get done what I needed to) your statements: -A PREROUTING -d <VIP> -p tcp -m tcp --dport 389 -j REDIRECT -A PREROUTING -d <VIP> -p tcp -m tcp --dport 636 -j REDIRECT Does this mean? -you are assigning an 2 IPs to your LDAP servers, one for loadbalancing and one for LDAP server -any traffic to the VIP is redirected to the IP that you have told LDAP server to use Correct?
