I did do this right now, but couldn't find a solution. That which came
closest, seems to have problems when one link is down (is this still
true with kernel 2.4.4?), which unfortunately is my case most of the
time. OTOH, I'm receiving lots of emails of other persons looking for
this solution. Would it be possible that some of those who worked on
that in october/november share their experiences in form of a
mini-howto? If not, I guess, a description of the basic strategy would
be very helpfull, as most of us don't even know where to start trying.
