You, Sven, explained very well all my current dubts. The only solution is
a newtork interface per file, but to project a non-trivial routing
policy is out of my knowledge. In addiction, I have to do that with the
old ipfwadm :-(
To test the complex environment with 3/4 interfaces (two ethernet, serial
and paralled) up and running is remarkable task, with only two computer!
To setup the code for any interface eth/pcmcia/ppp/plip is not difficult,
but to imagine an useful and general routing mechanism is complex.
