I'm new to Linux Networking, and it seems like no one wants to answer this question in the Networking section, so my newbie self decided to post it here

Setup:
Computer 1: RH 9.0 with ip_vs 1.0.9 and ipvsadm 1.21
.......................2 NICS - eth0(ip x.x.5.1) eth1(ip x.x.1.5)
Computer 2: RH 9.0 with ip_vs 1.0.9 (ip x.x.5.2)
Computer 3: RH 9.0 with ip_vs 1.0.9 (ip x.x.5.3)

IPVSADM is set up to rr over the x.x.5.1/2/3 ip addresses.
All have rsh functionality with each other.
None of the computers have their firewalls on.

What I am attempting: To get Computer 1 to round robin the requests of the client over all three computers.
Example:
......................CLIENT
............................\/
....................Computer1 <-
..................\/.......(rr)........../\
.......Computer2...>.....Computer3

What is happening: IPVSADM has no problem round robining it from x.x.1.5 to x.x.5.1 (locally, because they are in the same machine) but when i refresh it and it tries to connect to x.x.5.2 it times out for some reason.10.10

Any suggestions or comments welcome.
