I've done this with outgoing connections for port 25 and 80. Have to be root though and affects the entire server. I
usediptables and SNAT (source address translation)
iptables -I POSTROUTING -t nat -p tcp --dport 80 -o eth1 -j SNAT --to-source xxx.xx.xxx.xx
This probably won't go to list not sure why I can't post yet

Subject: [PHP] How to select the source ip address for a connection to the database server
Hi,
I am currently�working with PHP5+PGSQL 8.2.13 and i have the
following problem to solve and i need your help.
The server hosting PHP+psql�client�has 1 physical network
interfaces with multiple�subinterfaces using different IPs.
One of those IP�is dedicated to my domain, but it is not servers
default IP address since i share the server.
So the problem that i need to solve is how am i going to be able to
use-select my domains IP address as source�to connect to the remote
databases.
Is there any configuration to settle default source IP the client will use?
At the moment all my attempts to connect to the database�make use
of�servers default interface IP as source.
Thanks in advance for your help.
