Greetings, I pretend to load-balancing to two servers but apparently I think only one machine is getting the requests. These are the rules I run in iptables: /sbin/iptables -v -P INPUT ACCEPT /sbin/iptables -v -P OUTPUT ACCEPT /sbin/iptables -v -P FORWARD ACCEPT /sbin/iptables -v -t nat -A PREROUTING --dst 192.168.89.44 -p tcp \ --dport 9000 -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.89.158:80 \ --to-destination 192.168.89.159:80 /sbin/iptables -v -t nat -A POSTROUTING --dst 192.168.89.158/31 \ -p tcp --dport 80 -j SNAT --to-source 192.168.89.44 /sbin/iptables -v -t nat -A OUTPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 9000 \ --dst 192.168.89.44 -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.89.158:80 \ --to-destination 192.168.89.159:80 As you can see, I have two destinations hosts, 192.168.89.158/31. The 192.168.89.44 is the gateway itself that is redirecting requests on port 9000 to the two http servers. All of them are in the same network. However, I think only the .158 is getting the requests (I have verified that with tcpdump). So, what is wrong or what is needed? I supposed the requests would be load-balanced... I'm using a linux redhat 7.3 box with default kernel 2.4.18-3. thanks, Pedro Salazar. -- PS pedro-b-salazar@xxxxxxxxxxxxx PGP:0E129E31D803BC61
