Subject: /net/ip_vs.h in stock kernels

I noticed that the ip_vs.h include is not in the main kernel tree or ip
virtual switch support while I was attempting to buid the pirahnna web
server. Is this module a patch located somewhere else on
ftp.kernel.org.

Thanks

Jeff,
Red Hat started included the IPVS patches from
http://www.linuxvirtualserver.org/ starting with RH6.1 (I believe). You
can find the patch they use in the kernel src.rpm, or go get the patch
from the URL listed above.

Dax,

Thanks. I noticed the pirahna web server rpm would rebuild unless the
kernel had this patch. I was wondering why it wasn't in the stock kernels
since it's GPL. We may want to consider including it.
