The LARTC How To does not take care of failover but load balancing works fine. So if you want just load balancing you can go with it. You can also try out any of the following approaches / scripts: http://yesican.chsoft.biz/lartc/MultihomedLinuxNetworking.html http://www.burnpc.com/website.nsf/all/FE5F4F294F508EB786256E600019BC30 http://www.linux.com.lb/wiki/index.pl?node=Load%20Balancing%20Across%20Multiple%20Links http://www.initzero.it/products/opensource/izbalancing/download/izbalancing http://routeskeeper.sourceforge.net/Routeskeeper/ But nano.txt is probably the best way out. You can get hold of a spare system or a hard disk and move it there after you set it up. -- Manish Kathuria http://www.tuxspace.com/ _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lartc
