I've got some very complex network setups that I have documented and supported. My homedir has several of them from my own experience: http://dev.gentoo.org/~robbat2/conf.d-net/ Includes dual-homing, multi-homing, and HE.net IPv6 tunnels. I wrote a lot of the original bonding, vlan, mac-changer, bridging code in BL1. Better documentation on how to set up the complex network configs would be great, but the net.example is too long already. -- Robin Hugh Johnson Gentoo Linux: Developer, Trustee & Infrastructure Lead E-Mail : robb...@gentoo.org GnuPG FP : 11AC BA4F 4778 E3F6 E4ED F38E B27B 944E 3488 4E85
