If this is the case, then is there an easy $MD solution out there to manage two external connections?

Generally 2 default gateways on the same box gives you all kinds of headaches and errors, in short, you're not suppose to do it. If all seems to be working good on both sides with those nics, you might want to try a reboot and see if everything still works.

If that points to an Internet path that is not the same as the original path the data took... it won't work. You may need a router in place, then have the host machine use the router as the gateway. Then, the router can determine where the data needs to go. (If it originated from network1 -> go back to network1, if you came from network2 -> go back to network2) that may be an over generalization... I make Curtis set this stuff up for me. ;) Does that make sense? Other guru's - Am I on the right track? Chris Janssen wrote: > No duplicate port forward.
