I'm still trying to figure out this problem, I appreciate any suggestions... What I'd like to do is have a second default gateway path that never gets taken unless the first one goes into the "dead" state. I have installed Julian's patch and it works great for loadballanced connections using the nexthop code, but I would like to setup the second default route to be the failover only if the first one becomes unavailable. Is this possible? How might I do this? regards, joshua _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
