Re: Internal PC/external Gateway

["Sadus ." <sadus@swiftbin.net>]

The Multi routing doc is another scenario that includes sharing or load
balancing between 2 providers to the same machine, that's not what i
want.

I tried using iproute2 and iptables (SNAT), but i just don't know what
to set as default gw for PC2, since PC2 can't see Provider 2 unless the
gateway of PC2 is the Linux GW (since it got ipforward).

thanks
