While I'm not positive, I don't think this is possible without significant
investment of time. The only way to do this, I think, is with BGP or some
other dynamic routing protocol. You might check into the iproute2 stuff
(search on freshmeat.net for iproute2 to find the HOWTO), but I think even
that is not going to accomplish what you want.

of something...hmm...yes...I've got it...there's a VMS nearby, or
I'm a Blit.
