Ok, do you mean that source address can be different from the address of the interface used for the connection? or do you want to use different source address? Thanks :) On Tue, 2009-03-31 at 16:57 +0200, Axel Rau wrote: > It's the source address when the FD connect to the SD. -

What does the directive FDSourceAddress stand for? do you mean src ip in packet? what's the difference between FDSourceAddress and FDAddress? I supposed binding fd to an ip/port to be the solution for multihomed clients or cluster environments.. Thanks, m On Mon, 2009-03-30 at 23:54 +0200, Axel Ra
