Thanks,

Actually, I don't want load balancing; I want incoming http traffic (to 
port 8080) to be forwarded to *ALL* defined target IP addresses.

...But I still don't know if this is possible with iptables. I hope 
someone here can provide more info.

I am not sure if haproxy or nginx can be used to simply forward all 
inbound traffic to a number of public IP Addresses (anywhere on the 
Internet) at the same time, as this is a very special scenario: it is 
different both fom a forward proxy and from a reverse proxy -with or 
without load-balancing-  (which is usually implemented with such 
software). If, however, it is feasible, I would be interested to know 
which is the directive for this feature in the respective software (so I 
can investigate further).

Best regards,
Nick
