Check out: http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/Adv-Routing-HOWTO-11.html there's also a recent article in sysadmin magazine about balancing multiple connections on a linux gateway that would probably be quite usefull to you: http://www.samag.com/documents/s=1824/sam0201h/0201h.htm Brian [EMAIL PROTECTED] "You can't depend on your judgement when your imagination is out of focus." -- Mark Twain
