Hi.

I have a question and I hope you can help me.
Excuse my bad english.

I have a mail + www-proxy server on freebsd and I have two accounts
for two isp's. There are two isdn-terminals on com1 and com2. The
connect shall only go on when transfer (www + mail) is wanted and goes
down when no transfer is there about a few minutes. Connect is via
login and password on ppp.

If there is some transfer need on the server I want that the mashine
connects to the first isp on com1. If it get's no connect it shall
connect to the second isp on com2. Sametime - if the connect on com1
goes down it shall connect com2. And if connect on com2 goes down it
shall connect on com1. First it shall allways try to connect to com1.

Is this possible? Can you give my some sample configure?
Thanks forwarding.
