Have someone made this

Here is my situation:
- I have two ADSL lines, and i want to be able to balance and make a
redundance with these two links to my local network.
- First ADSL router is: 192.168.1.1 (DNS & default Gateway)
-(eth0) = 192.168.1.200 (default route)
- Second ADSL router is: 192.168.0.254 (DNS & default Gateway)
-(eth2) = 192.168.0.200
- Local Network is: 192.168.2.1 (eth1) - DHCPD running
Here is the deal. My network is up and running with the default route
through eth0, so I try to test if the redundance thing is working by
umpluging the eth0 ethernet cable, to see if the FC-1 box will change
its route to be able to keep the network alive through eth2 (my other
ADSL line), but it turns out all the client machines in the network
stop communicating with the internet. So, i hope anyone have had this
problem before, and even more hopefully solved it. A real working
script would be so great. Thanks a lote FC community.

I think it can be done but the amount of time it will take will probably
not be worth it.. There are devices available now that will do all that
for you and some can take up to 4 DSL lines.. They are also not that
expensive, if I remember correctly they started at about £200 and will
provide a better solution IMO..
Did you look at the bonding driver? If you have the kernel source
installed, it's in
/usr/src/linux-2.4/Documentation/networking/bonding.txt.
