Is there possibly a piece missing to this? Ive set this up and it did
not complain, but Im still only going out through one IP. Here is the
output from iptables and ip route show:

Chain POSTROUTING (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination
SNAT   all -- anywhere  anywhere  to:192.168.2.10-192.168.2.11



192.168.2.0/24 dev eth0  proto kernel  scope link
default via 192.168.2.254 dev eth0



Thanks,
Ryan
