I have them too (those days), trying to ram the square block through the |

round hole.... In some cases it even works :-) |

You're welcome. |

Word of warning: If you lose the noarp option on one of the real-servers |
| 28 |
you will see very weird erratic behaviour which can be hard to debug. |
| 29 |
Depending on the load you push through the loadbalancer the realserver |
| 30 |
which sends an arp will die immediately or slowly whilst generating |
| 31 |
weird bugs in your app. |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
Best way to check: login with ssh on the vip |
