Besides trying a different technology, there was no specific point in
using LVS. As I stated in my previous mail, DNS can do the trick very
well IMHO (and we actually use DNS round-robin for slave LDAPs)

In the directors we host non-mail services for the nodes such as DNS and
LDAP, and statistics software as well.

Yes. We don't use the other functionalities of Red Hat Cluster Suite,
but this could well be considered in order to reuse the two directors as
nodes. Thanks for your comments.
