Thanks to everyone who has posted on this topic.  My main concern is not
really load balancing (although at some point I that might come into play).
For right now I simply need to direct traffic.  To begin with I will want
all out going web traffic to go over the Comcast connection and all mail
traffic to go over the DSL.

I belive I can accomplish that with iptables.  If that is not the way to go
please advise.  If you have dynamically routed packets this way using
Iptables and you don't mind sharing that snipt of or your Iptables I would
greatly appreciate it.

Thanks again.

Doug

    While browsing CDW the other day I saw a linksys unit that does the same
thing - load balancing. If Linksys wasn't owned by Cisco I wouldn't believe
it, load balancing ain't easy!
