(I know it sounds stupid but I don't see any reason why not). If the answer is 'YES' then how can you "enforce" the kernel to use a specific netcard for when 'taking' to certain addresses (i.e. how can you route some addresses via a specific netcard)? Thanks P.S. : Under Linux this is possible - at least in respect with the tunnel device - To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
