RE: DNAT + 2 uplinks + route = nogo

Not off the wall at all. This is a solution that has been suggested by more people and is documented on the internet. We are talking about more than a handfull of systems with more than one operating system so I rather do everything on the firewall if at all possible. It seems now that there is a solution that may work and I'm trying it in the next hour or so.

Thanks for the suggestion though.

	Can I make one other (possibly stupid) suggestion?

	if I understand correctly ... 
	
	Can you perhaps have TWO ip addresses on the destination systems?
	alias the one on top of the other?
	Then DNAT from inbound interface A to target ip A 
	         DNAT from inbound interface B to tartget ip B
	and the unDNAT would handle more accurately?

	(or am I utterly off the wall here) and the reply from the target system  to 
the firewall would not nessesarily come BACK from the ip it was sent to?
