Hi All,

I'm not on this list, please include me in any replies.

I just saw the article on slashdot, and read the documentation.
I haven't tried using the software.

This looks very simple and well thought-out. However the
first thing I wanted to do with it was to provide a service
via two different ISPs.

If I have two ISPs, I have two public addresses that terminate
at my host. I can set up a virtual server listening on each address,
and packets will be routed by my ISPs over their individual links.
However my routing table will have one default route, so all my
reply packets will return by one ISP. So a failure in that ISP
will cause both addresses to be unuseable.

I don't see how the virtual server implementation could help,
actually, since this problem is deeply embedded in the
networking architecture. But just in case I decided to send
this mail in case you have any magical solutions...

Thanks,
Ciaran
