cross posting sucks, don't do it. also i have problems 'seeing' a network
without some sort of diagram, however....
you can do this with static routes and subnetting afaik, ie:
network
192.168/16 -> card1 -> static route to router A 3.3.3.1
10/24 -> card2 -> static route to router B 3.3.3.2
"man route"
should help you out along with "netstat -nr"
for the above configuration (if i have my syntax right)
route add -net 192.168 3.3.3.1
route add -net 10 3.3.3.2
maybe explore the -interface option to route?
perhaps what you're looking for is what "routed" and "gated" can probably
do for you.
routed is part of the FreeBSD base system
gated can be installed from the "port collection"
check the documentation included with these packages.
