Hi again :-)

Ok, I have now learned how to make that work. Learning this via ssh on a dial 
up connection has been a bit of a trial to say the least. I only managed to 
make 5 experiments in that time, because, of course, whenever I was wrong, 
I'd lock myself out...

Simply, I have 3 dsl lines, and I wanted to multipath two of them. One 2MB 
xdsl line was all mine (ppp0) and, for trial purposes, the other came off of 
a switch from an existing NT router. For a week and a half I couldn't tell 
any diff between my set up and known setups from this list (thanks William et 
al.).

In the end, I had to be *told* the ip of the NT router and then it worked no 
problem: I had been using the wrong ip :-(

I will hard code it for now, because ultimately I will just be grepping for 
pppx's (when the NT router is replaced by this), but I really wonder how I 
could have discovered it.

I saw these:
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface

172.36.0.0/16 dev eth2  scope link 
127.0.0.0/8 dev lo  scope link 
default via 148.235.145.81 dev ppp0


The ip I needed was 66.181.42.68 to get out on eth1. How can I discover that 
without being told?

I've typed ip xxx so often that I now understand the wisdom behind allowing 
all those short forms, I've read the cref.ps, lartc and stef's site etc., but 
I must be missing some ls command somewhere...
