This is the kind of post I like, thanks!
Obiously, you are right telling the problem is "how to use". I can setup
the two single card, but problem is routing code (i.e. 'route' command
and 'ipfwadm' command). To project that in general way is a little
difficult for me, because I never handled router problematics.

I have now a second NIC card a will try to deal with this fascinating
question.

What is not clear for me is: how the kernel tcp stack handle
different addresses, from eth0 and eth1. Maybe you specified
eth0 as default gateway?
