Assuming that you have a NetBSD system with multiple ethernet
interfaces, is there a way to request that a given connection
be made from a specific ethernet interface?  As an example,
let's say ed0 is 10.0.1.1 and ed1 is 10.0.2.1.  Is there a
way to force smtp connections to go via 10.0.2, and nntp connections
to go via 10.0.1?
