Hello all,

Me again. It seems my downlink running Linux can't get the multilink ppp
hack kernel to compile. I'm sure it's quite possible but perhaps he has
some weird combination of kernels and other circumstances.

For the moment, is there any other way of load balancing? Even something
crude like a one way balance, with my end distributing packets evenly over
a couple of ppp or tun interfaces without the other end needing to do more
than connect twice.

(Can FreeBSD do *source* based routing yet? That may be one way to do a
crude balance)

Getting a little desperate due to the long lead time so far to find a
solution for this. Thanks for any help...

Cheers.
