Yes. I have read the howtos now. But there's one more question. What is 
this "Automatic Metric" (thats what I saw in Windows XP ..related to a 
Gateway). 

Also, how do I make sure that my main IP address will always be the default?
I just want to use the other IP address while transferring files from the 
machine with a different gateway.
