[ I've been waiting what seems like centuries for someone to even consider talking about source address selection, alas I have to bring it up myself :( ] I'll responsd by asking questions of you. Do you know how source address selection works when the user tries to connect to a remote location yet doesn't specify a specific source address to use?
