Thanks Holden.  I'll take a look at HAProxy.

I have not implemented this my self but I have read that Haproxy, a load 
balancer, can do this as well. Haproxy will send the reply using the interface 
where the requests came from.

Thank you for the info fooler.
I get what you're saying about policy-based routing, but isn't that applicable 
only to connections initiated by the server?  Can policy-based routing also do 
"All connections initiated externally and coming through the router ip address 
so-and-so goes through that router"?

that is correct because traffic came from router A and B use the main
routing table... your solution is to use policy based routing....
create additional two routing table aside from the default or main
routing table.. for incoming traffic for A or B.... mark or tag it ...
upon out going.. your policy rule state that packet tag for A goes to
gateway of  A and tag for B goes to gateway of B.. non tag packets
goes to the main routing table's default gateway...

fooler.
