Joe -
Linux can do this, check out:
http://www.lartc.org/
More specifically:
http://www.lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html and
http://www.ssi.bg/~ja/#routes
I am working on a redhat project that requires QoS over multiple VLAN's.
I was reading up on tc and imq devices when I came across this
information. Haven't tried this config, but it look like it should do
what you want.

Subject: NAT Configuration for Dual WAN Router
I've been trying over and over to figure this one out, but I'm just
hitting the end of my wits. We have a remote office that can only get
768Kbps DSL, which they've not totally maxed out. So management's
solution now is to buy a second DSL line, but they won't let me buy a
dual WAN router (in case they add a 3rd DSL line).

I've found some great articles on how to get the interfaces working with
2 default gateways (I used this:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/Networking/Spanning_Multiple
_DSL
s) and that is all running fine. It alternates every few minutes which
WAN port is used when I traceroute yahoo.com (which is fine) and
everything is connecting fine from the router. However, I can't figure
out how to get NAT running on the server for the 2 WAN ports for clients
inside the LAN. I can NAT to 1 DSL, but that is useless.

What I am looking for is a tutorial in how to do this or a pointer to
someone who can help. Anyone know of a resource for this?
