From the LVS Howto section 7.1:
"Possibly a group of machines on a private network (like the
servers in a VS-NAT setup) would already be connected to the
outside world by NAT. Both the regular NAT and reverse NAT used
in VS-NAT are configured in the same rc.lvs_nat file."
In other words, the Director in a NAT configuration is using IPCHAINS to build a MASQ network.
I can not comment specifically on squid and socks however.
