Ok so far so good... but I do need some clarification on a few things.

First, to summate, here are my goals:

- - send and receive all traffic with the exception of SIP and IAX based
traffic for VoIP over the cable link.

- - have the cable modem act as a backup in the event the DSL link fails,
this will include my normal web and mail server traffic.

I understand the tcrules setup (I think) in regards to what I am trying
to accomplish for outbound VoIP traffic. Inbound traffic will be
directed to the cable link as well, I'm going to create SRV records to
provide redundancy, will shorewall still process my DNAT rules
regardless of which ISP they arrive from? For example, let's say my
cable modem goes down, and I have an SRV record of a higher weight to
point to my DSL connection, I should expect to still be able to receive
inbound calls without hassle? What about outbound calls in this
scenario? What would be the best way to deal with that?

Here are my config files thus far, I don't know that many of the options
are sane however (pastebin'ed because they kept wrapping in my email
client):

Some of my configs may undoubtedly be wrong or not optimized, so any
help appreciated :)

Thanks,
Stephen
