Hello all,

I am running Bsdi 4.1. i am trying to get my server to respond to pings from
two diffrent networks. ie MCI and ATT, I have put two seperate network cards
in this machine. local pings work because of my local routing tables. When I
ping from outside it reaches one nic, but not the other. I then relized I
would have to run a routing protocal (rip). does any one have any ideas how
to multihome my bsdi box ? Now we can't afford a ASN number right now or
else i would use the router to route.
I have tried running routed -q and not installed the default gateway. it
detects the 216 network as primary and sends all the traffic out that pipe.

So i have to come up with a solution. and in a hurry, the reason I want to
run the box off of both t1's is because we are switching bandwidth
providers, and i need time to switch dns over.


NET A ef0                 NET B ef1
208.xxx.xxx.3         216.xxx.xxx.3
MCI                        ATT



help

Thanks
Mike
