Hi,

cifroes, according to LVS mini-howto, you can't use "ipvsadm ... -m" since your client, loadbalancer and webservers are on the same IP range.
You need to check the doc about LVS-DR (direct routing) if you want to keep you current IP addresses, else look for LVS-NAT.

I don't understand much also about bridging/routing...

I still have my problem unresolved.

When migrating the load-balancer live to another physical computer on the same subnet, the network traffic all of a sudden starts to work! This leads me to believe there is a problem with the bridge in dom0. There are some indications on this in the document http://en.opensuse.org/Xen3_and_a_Virtual_Network which discusses moving the bridge/router to a virtual machine.
