Haim Interesting article. Maybe the order of the routes in the routing table controls? You could experiment by reversing the order of the two add default gateway commands. Another possibility would the the eth number, i.e., eth0 is primary, eth1 is secondary. You could control this by switching cables (and appropriate ip's) or by controlling the name assigned to each (see other recent thread in this mail list). Bill Roberts
