Well, first of all, the BINDTODEVICE is not intended to regulate the source of response IP Addresses. It only regulates which Incoming TCP Connections are accepted. IP Communication still is processed by the IP FIB (Cache). So if you have 2 Interfaces on the same network, you cant use destination based routing tables. But if the two interfaces have differen (local) IP Addresses you can use those to discremninate. This is also why I saied, just bind to IP Addresses instead of named interfaces. > Btw, the reason I used named bindings, is that often I want two > connections to the same server.

Well most Software I know supports binding to ip and not to name, so I am not sure why it is different with curl. Note that TCP is smart enough to sent answers out with the IP Address of the request. It is not smart enough to sent it over the named devices.
