I'm in the process of upgrading a system with load balacing/failover from
2 different ISPs on a single box, e.g.:

http://www.xenocafe.com/tutorials/linux/redhat/bind_multiple_ip_addresses_to_single_nic/index.php

What I wish to be able to do is have qmail-smtpd listening on both IP
addresses for inbound mail traffic at all times. Then have qmail-remote
select the first available address to send outbound traffic--e.g. either
IP that is available, so that if one goes down, qmail-remote will
automatically determine to send on the other.

Is this possible with the current qmailtoaster distribution? I've seen
posts in other forums with similar questions, some indicate that a patch
is required or to have the services bound to specific IPs. None of the
information I can find gives information specific as to what I'm trying to
accomplish.

Many thanks in advance!
