Hi all! SmoothWall Express looks like a very exciting and polished 
firewall solution. First, let me say thanks and keep up the good work!

I have two questions about SmoothWall that I couldn't find in the 
Quick Start or Installation Manuals. Hope someone here can quickly answer:

1) Can smoothwall use a backup route automatically if the primary route
becomes unavailable? (ie, Cable modem is primary. Can SmoothWall dial-up
or use DSL connection if cable modem connection to Internet becomes
unavailable?

2) Can smoothwall facilitate HTTP tunneling over SSH for a wifi-host on
the DMZ? Detail: I'd like to hang my Wi-fi access point off the SmoothWall
DMZ. I'd like to prevent Wi-fi hosts from directly accessing the Internet
unless they first establish a SSH tunnel to the SmoothWall server. Can
SmoothWall accomodate this type of setup?

Thanks again!
  Brian
