I have a fully patched MBP running Leopard.

I have set up two network interfaces. One wireless (1st in System Preferences->Network connection ordering), one ethernet. Both seem to be working: I'm able to access the Internet through either.

The problem I have is that I'm trying to use ssh and bind the connection to one interface, using:

ssh -b 192.168.0.2 user@domain

Using this syntax results in a timeout.

If I reorder the interfaces in System Prefs->Network, so that the ethernet connection is first, this works, but that's not the behavior I'm after.

Has anyone had any success binding an ssh connection to a specific interface?

Thanks in advance,
Colin
