Hello everyone!

I am installing a new Linux server that has dual ethernet, one Gigabit NIC
and one 10/100 NIC.

I currently have it setup using the Gigabit NIC, but I would like to plug
the 10/100 NIC into a separate switch, then fail over to it if the Gigbit
NIC, or the switch it's plugged into, fails.

I've done the requisite google search, and I found this (
http://ps-ax.com/failoverd/ ) project, but before I implement it, I would
like to know if anyone has used it, or has any other ideas, commments,
pointers, flames, etc.

Thanks!
