one simple solution is in this post[1] (read all the thread if you whant a
context). Bassically it uses iptables CONNMARK to remembre to which iface(and
certanly wich src ip) each connection flow belongs.
You will have to use same gw in all ifaces, maybe the ip route "onlink"
ption(command line) make your script simpler. No need to use julian patch and
certanly DO NOT USE CONFIG_IP_ROUTE_MULTIPATH_CACHED in your kernel config.
Feel free to post any doubts.

Hi Luciano,
Ive tried the above solution but then with juliano's patch instead of conmark. It didnt work then because this part of the script:
ip ro add default nexthop via x.x.x.x dev eth1 weight 1 nexthop via
y.y.y.y dev eth2
ip route add default table provider1 via x.x.x.x dev eth1
ip route add default table provider2 via y.y.y.y dev eth2
# and most important
ip rule add fwmark 0x1 table provider1
ip rule add fwmark 0x2 table provider2
y.y.y.y dev eth2
ip route add default table provider1 via x.x.x.x dev eth1
ip route add default table provider2 via y.y.y.y dev eth2
# and most important
ip rule add fwmark 0x1 table provider1
ip rule add fwmark 0x2 table provider2
somehow looked at the default gateway x.x.x.x or y.y.y.y instead of to the "dev ethx"
Because the gateway adresses were both the same x.x.x.x = y.y.y.y all the outgoing packets were routed out over eth1.
Im not totaly sure, but the conmark line's only make sure that packets that go out over some nic get back over the same nic? Or do they infact fix the "same gateway"problem?
This is why i tried to get the script from my first post with random match to work. This guy does exactly what i need to do, but somehow i can't get random match to work. You think i should use a 2.6 or a 2.4 kernel?
Regards and thanks,
Jacques
