Hi to all
i think this is not a new problem for this forum....but its newest for me as i m a new  linux lerner. Even if it is new plzz....reply me ur answer..n if its already asked n have solution..plzz forward the solution.  My problem is here mentioned:
I have fedora core 4 as a linux server. there r two external links connected to this.

the settings are as: eth0 ->for internal (that is for LAN)
                             eth2 ->dsl connection
                             eth1 ->cable line connection( this connection has no gateway and netmask address provided so this is connected via ppp0. this is provided from ISP via DHCP but have the fixed ipaddress)

i want to use these two link to provide the internet in my LAN where there are about 8 to 10 computers. i want that if any of the link goes down ...the other should  continue the internet ...n also while both the links r up..the load should be shared   between these two links....so that the net conection and downloads be faster....

i have heard about the scripts....that can do this....but i have no idea how to write these...scripts. i need these  to be on after reboot also...
i tried my best and i also refered the lartc.org ..but i could do a little only.

WHAT I DID: it works very well if i connect both of the links and the default path is  via ppp0. but suppose if that is(ppp0) disconnected then the dsl connection can handle only upto 15/16 seconds. after that it  disconnects . whats the solution ...plzz...as..soon as..possible...help..me...i m in big trouble....
UR SMALL HELP WILL BE A BIG BOON FOR ME

Remember that i don't have gateway and netmask of eth1 connection. it has  ip address only.it is NATed via ppp0. and also my all working are based on lartc.org only...in case of dsl connection i have just replaced the ip and gateways with my ip and gateways....n in case of ppp0 conection i have put ppp0 in the place of  gateway n netmask  and in place of ip i have given the ip of that link.

THANKS IN ADVANCE
