Bert, I think that I've just spent so much time staring at this that I think everyone else knows what I know :) Your suggestions work great (with one minor change).. thank you! But... I don't understand why. > ip rule add from 10.4.44.11 table speed > ip rule add from 10.4.44.12 table lucent What context is the 'from' in? It seems to me that the linux box would never see packets from either of those two addresses (.11 and .12). Maybe to them, but not from them. > ip route add default via 10.4.44.1 dev eth0 table speed > ip route add default via 10.4.44.1 dev eth0 table lucent I changed the gw on the speed entry to 10.4.44.2, which is correct for that router. Thanks again for all the help..

I think your linux box needs this: ip rule add from 10.4.44.11 table speed ip rule add from 10.4.44.12 table lucent ip route add default via 10.4.44.1 dev eth0 table speed ip route add default via 10.4.44.1 dev eth0 table lucent Regards, bert -- http://www.PowerDNS.com Versatile DNS Software & Services http://www.tk the dot in .tk Netherlabs BV / Rent-a-Nerd.nl - Nerd Available - Linux Advanced Routing & Traffic Control: http://ds9a.nl/lartc _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://ds9a.nl/lartc/
