I'm afraid that's not how it works. In the absence of policy-routing options, packets are always routed ONLY by destination address. Binding to a particular interface only set's the source IP that will be attached to the packet, and will influence routing on the *return* trip of any replies. - -- David DeSimone == Network Admin == [EMAIL PROTECTED] "This email message is intended for the use of the person to whom it has been sent, and may contain information that is confidential or legally protected.
