Hi all,

I've got two internet links here, with appropriate routing for certain IP
addresses. I'm wanting to masquerade internal machines on both links, using
the appropriate IP address for the link.

Here's a diagram to try to explain things:


+-----+   +----------+
|     |   |          |<-> Link 1 IP A.B.C.D <-> Host A
| LAN |<->| Firewall |
|     |   |          |<-> Link 2 IP W.X.Y.Z <-> Host B
+-----+   +----------+

I have the routing table in Firewall set to route packets to Host A via the
Link 1 interface, and packets to Host B via the Link 2 interface.

When I masquerade a packet from the LAN to Host B the packet is delivered
via Host B yet is masqueraded as A.B.C.D

Is there a way I can get the packet to be masqueraded as W.X.Y.Z ?? While
keeping packets to Host A masqueraded as A.B.C.D ??

Cheers,

Josh Marshall
