In my case, as always, its a bit "special". I have 2 OPENVPN tunnels, which I sent over different transits to the same end host. On that host, I do my NAT. SO, without getting into all sorts of hot/heavy things, is there a simple program to install to ping something via the first tunnel, and if it can't then switch my default route to the second tunnel? Or, do I just use a script like here : http://www.freebsddiary.org/phorum/read.php?f=6&i=79&t=79 Thanks, Tuc
