You may do it with static routes, but only if the FreeBSD box does have the two different links (routes) connected directly (i.e. two interfaces), if the two paths are (for instance) on the same local network, there is no way for the FreeBSD to know of the down links without hte help of a routing daemon. raymundo. > > > > __________________________________________________ > Do You Yahoo!? > Get Yahoo!
