hey,

is there any way for me to route kazaa/p2p on my dialup connection and
everything else on my regular cable modem? i've read about workarounds for a
particular ip range (ftp site or vpn server etc), but manually adding IPs
for a p2p application seems impossible.

Alternatively does anyone know of a software that allows you to control
port-level traffic to a particular network device (with something like that
i could dedicate a port to my dialup connection and use that with my p2p
client app) OR even a proxy server that allows you to choose a network
device for routing all in/out traffic (which would in turn allow me to
control which network adapater is used by my p2p app)??

best,
vin

ps: yeah it sounds weird, but i HAVE to use a dialup connection for p2p as
my cablenet provider has enabled packet filtering that disables all p2p
applications (on regular/non regular ports).

If you know the IP address that connects to kazaa, you can define a
route that uses the dialup connection for it:

route add a.b.c.d mask 255.255.255.255 w.x.y.z

Substitute the kazaa address for "a.b.c.d", and substitute your dialup
connection's IP address for "w.x.y.z".
