I just finished testing out a round robin setup using IPnat on our firewall with a rule similar to this - very handy, and no DNS changes:
rdr fxp0 x.x.x.x/32 port 80 -> 172.16.1.110 port 80 tcp round-robin
rdr fxp0 x.x.x.x/32 port 80 -> 172.16.1.111 port 80 tcp round-robin
However, I noticed one strange side effect in VB misreporting the online users - once I started surfing on the cluster setup (which is not public btw) the number got really weird - reporting approximately double the number of online users (members and guests).
Since session data is stored in the database, I can't figure this one out. Once I stopped surfing the cluster machines, the numbers returned to normal, with the exception of the 'most users online'.
Has anyone run into this before?
