HI Pablo,
Yep, I'd be happy to test. I've also uncovered a new issue: I have two Active-
Active machines (conntrackd running NOTRACK mode with both External and
Internal cache disabled)
In kernel 3.2 this pair works asymmetric and issue-free. Upgrade it to 3.4 and
it immediately has around 50% failure of TCP connection attempts on systems
behind them - ICMP on the other hand is flawless, DNS lookups also are OK so I
*believe* that UDP may also be performing well - I've no idea where to even
look on this one so any insight would be most appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Oliver
