Interesting article. |

Maybe the order of the routes in the routing table controls? You could |
| 16 |
experiment by reversing the order of the two add default gateway |
| 17 |
commands. |

Another possibility would the the eth number, i.e., eth0 is primary, |
| 20 |
eth1 is secondary. You could control this by switching cables (and |
| 21 |
appropriate ip's) or by controlling the name assigned to each (see |
| 22 |
other recent thread in this mail list). |
