Which is the "correct server" ? Are the two identical, and you want to do some sort of load balancing, or are they different, in which case what is the answer to the question "which is the correct server for packets coming in to this address" ? > 2) The same as scenario 1) except you have 2 addresses available but > only one external NIC. No problem here - apply both external addresses to the NIC, have two translation rules forwarding packets from ExtAddrA to IntAddrA and ExtAddrB to IntAddrB. > 3) Same as 2) except you have 2 NIC's. Easy. Take out one NIC and do what I suggested for question 2 above. Antony.
