If you can exaggerate ("must be chased away to preserve the integrity of
the tribe" isn't what I'm after, rather moving these two particular
questions to another forum), I can extrapolate: MTU on DSL plus two
default gateways strongly suggests (to me) home user and not network
operator. Not to recommend a site where you have to pay (at least
initially), but there are constant (perhaps three per day) postings on
Experts Exchange (http://www.experts-exchange.com) on "how do I hook my
<widgets-of-all-flavors> to two cable modems for [more speed|redundancy]
etc., including how to host servers behind said widget.
There are existing resources out there that solve this person's
problems, and solve them well. NANOG already has boundaries (spam
filtering at the mail server level sounds like an obvious one, but other
security topics might be another that's referred to more topical
lists/sites), and I think 9,000 list members don't come here to do home
user tech support, they come for other reasons.
