<DIV><SPAN class=881253619-13112007><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have 2 network
cards. One with the adress of 216.198.99.247 and a second NIC with
an adress of 10.0.0.2. The NIC with the 10. address is what I want to use
for a failover communication with a second server. The failover
communication software uses a multicast address of 229.255.0.1. The
default gateway is attached to the 216. network. And ping tests result in
the following: Pinging from 10. NIC I can only receive replies from the
other 10. address. From the 216. NIC I receive replies from everything but
I cannot establish the failover on this NIC. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=881253619-13112007><FONT face=Arial size=2>What I want to do is
tell my computer ( Red Hat Enterprise Linux V.3 ) to force communication
from 229.255.0.1 across the 10.0.0.2 network card. If I can
accomplish this I believe my failover will work.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
