Battle Of The Iethernet Cards

[Joe Clever]

Since I have not seen any other replies, I will take a crack at this. I
think you are asking how to bind different apps/daemons to different
interfaces. I think that you will have to go searching for options in each
applications/daemons config/startup files/scripts. Often the app/daemon
will, by default, bind itself to all interfaces that it can identify. In
other words, you have to tell it if you want something different.

I have 2 Lan cards in my Linux machine.  each card is connected to a subnet
that has a high speed modem.  Apache and Exim seems to share these 2 network
cards.  I want to tell my machine that I only want Wan or external
communications to go through one of the cards.  The other card is for local
file sharing only, at least as far as Linux is concerned.  The other high
speed modem is for the Windows machines.  How do I do this?  For now, I had
to disconnect a card, so now I can't get at Linux using Samba with half my
network.  I need to control the fact that although I have 2 modems, I only
want Linux to use one of them.
