What version to use ?
Hi,

I'm wondering which version of lvs to use.
On the web site, we can read that in a production environnement, we have to
use
lvs v0.1.2 with a kernel 2.4.0

The kernel 2.4.0 is OK, but is it better to keep a lvs v0.1.2 than a lvs
v0.2.3

I repeat that I'm in a prod environnement.

Thanks for all your help.

For 0.1.2 we know which features are not working: the NAT
method with netfilter NAT rules.

OTOH, 0.2.3 is not tested well but for now there are no reported
problems. Its status is: "Needs more tests with other netfilter
modules". It contains all known bugs fixed. Read the Changelogs! I'll
not be surprised if you have more problems with 0.1.2. Make your tests
before using it in production.

LVS for 2.2 is more stable.
