E-Smith has such a large potential in the enterprise envoroment. Load balancing traffic to servers behind the NAT would put e-smith into data centers around the world. I'm working on making LVS work with e-smith but haven't goten far (lack of experiance). The basic idea is to have your gateway handle port forwarding to multiple servers using the same port. You can have 10 Web servers behind one IP address and the traffic to the 10 servers would be load-balanced round robin stile between the systems. Red Hat 6.2 High Availability server comes installed with this servers but I have heard that it also comes with the basic version but does not have a install gui.
