Re: Networks and wireless etc

In wireless , routing done by STA before connection() happen during
autentication/autorization process through ZeroConfigure or similar custom
service , OTOH IIRC that not work for wired too , for multihomed computer
bind not helped me and routing of data went due to metric and not bind.
For long period I'm not played with multihomed computers ( from
http://www.codeguru.com/network/pfwredun.shtml ) but that what happened ,
obviously IIRC ( I became older :( )
