Hi there,
I have a small dedicated server that has four ip addresses and by default my httpd sends request using the servers main ip for all outbound connections.
I'm quite amateur at routing and iptables I figured I'd sign up here and ask the gurus for advice on the subject.
So here is the situation that I am having, my server that uses the ip 127.0.20.1 uses 127.0.20.1 for all outbound connections which is fine for almost everything, however lets say I want to connect to some.hostname or 10.0.0.74 etc etc is there a quick routing or ip tables trick/tip to simply make all connections requested to connect to 10.0.0.74 use 127.0.20.4 as opposed to using 127.0.20.1
Thank you all in advance for all advice or solutions.
