BIND-8 has a nice configuration feature. Source address 
for outgoing UDP queries from a multihomed host can be 
fixed to a single IP number, irrespective of query destination.
This makes things like firewalls more clear and error-free.

Can FreeBSD solve this at a system level,
that is extend this feature to TCP packets, and 
to other daemons (say sendmail)?

Thanks in advance.
