Virtual server not working in LAN

[A Former User]

Hi,

I configured a Virtual server (192.168.100.250) on port 445 for two NAS shares replicating each other that are 192.168.100.251 and .252.

I can see it from IPSec and mount it, but not from LAN.

A machine (192.168.100.2) into the same LAN is returning no route to host. This is strange as it should be direct access to 192.168.100.250.

telnet 192.168.100.250 445
Trying 192.168.100.250...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: No route to host

Here screenshots of the config.

Can you please help me fixing this issue?

Thank you so much!

Best,

If the clients and server are on the same subnet, that won't work without extra outbound NAT rules to mask the source.

As it is, the servers see the client address and reply directly, breaking the intended traffic flow.

You are better off ditching the built-in load balancer and moving to HAProxy. The load balancer has been removed from 2.5.0.

Hi All!

I switched to the HAproxy package as suggested and it works like a charm with a 2 click configuration!

Thank you all for the help!
