Linux only has one routing table,

Not the case for 20 years+. see "TABLE" in `ip route help` and `ip ro ls table all` to see all the route tables you currently have active... you might not have seen the 'local' routes before

That's cool.... the situation we were in was that we had multiple public ip addresses in each of our class C static addresses, but no BGP routing because we were small fry. I used DNS round robin so that from the outside world, it would try either route in, then forward those packets in to the appropriate server.

Its good to see you don't have to mark those packets manually any more.
