yeah my routers do NAT already. and i do have failover for
outgoing on NAT but i haven't gotten around to figuring out
how to do failover nat(which seems to require dynamic NAT)
combined with static NAT. a CCNA friend of mine works with
a CCNP and he said its possible and would look at my config
files to see what can be done but, i really expected this to
be simple in linux! 

so until i figure out how to somehow combine dynamic and
static nat on my cisco 2500s then i cant do failover for
static nat entries(which my machines are on).
