IPs 2

[Davano]

Hallo all,

I have a question about IPs. The Internet comes in my home and is connected to a modem, now the modem is connected to a linksys wireless -G broadband touter. The router has DHCP on it, the routers IP is 192.168.1.1 now the DHCP of the router gives IPs from 192.168.1.100 till 192.168.1.49. From the router there is one UTP cable that is connected to my PC, then i have one more UTP cable that is connected to my 2003 server. Now in my server i have 2 network cards one that is connected to the router this network card has a dynamic ip address. The network card that will control the LAN has a static IP of 192.168.10.10. With DNS IP 192.168.10.10. Now my question is will that work with the router and server on 192.168. Or will the LAN card think the router is on the LAN cos its IP is 192.168. And if it works is than the IP from the router (192.168.1.1) the default gateway on the LAN card ?

Ok I guess we need to know exactly a little clearer is what are you trying to accomplish? By knowing this then it is easier to help you with your IP configs.

THX for the reply Dberg 35.

I am trying t install a 2003 server. So that i can connect my 2nd pc to the server, and go the internet with it.

If you are running a class c subnet then you have two different network going. One ar 192.168.10.x and one at 192.168.1.x. What I would do is turn dhcp off on the router set the ip of the router to 192.168.10.1 make the server .2 setup dchp on the server with the proper scope and everything should be ok.

I do agree with the above or turn off the server DHCP and bridge the nics. I guess my next question would be is why use the server for internet access instead of just using the router?

 

[Davano]

Well i what to play with the server, like user x can go on the net and user y cant. I also will play around with desktop setting from clients.

I now have turned DHCP on the router off. Router has the IP 192.168.10.1 the network card that is connected to the router has the IP 192.168.10.12 subnet mask 255.255.255.0 and default gateway is 192.168.10.1.(with DNS IP from my ISP) The network card that connects to clients has the IP 192.168.10.2 subnet mask 255.255.255.0 (default gateway is empty) and as DNS 192.168.10.2. Now i can ping from my server to

http://www.google.com

and also to the client IP of 192.168.10.13. but from the client i can only ping 192.168.10.2

clients IP is 192.168.10.13 subnet mask 255.255.255.0 default gateway 192.168.10.1 and DNS 192.168.10.2 + the ISP one.

What em i doing wrong

Where is the computer getting its DNS records from?
if you're trying to join the server it would be worthwhile pointing the computers default DNS settings to the servers IP address. Otherwise it might be using the routers.

I know this may sound stupid but did you install Active Directory on your server. Just installing Windows 2003 server onto a machine does not make it a Domain Controller.
