Hi ...<br><br>I don't know if this is too advanced for this group, so apologies if it is.. any ideas where would be best to post it??<br><br>I'm looking for an idiots-guide to routing. I have a PC with 2 net cards in (one ethernet & one token-ring). I need to be able to get machines on the ethernet side to talk to the rest of the network on the t-r side.<br><br>I've tried everything i can think of, but the ethernet machines can still only see other ethernet machines and the gateway.. nothing beyond. I presume it's a problem with the 'routing' box, but can't work out what.<br><br>Any help appreciated.<br><br>Thanks.<br><br>Chris!!!

Routing with NT
- Thread starter roundst

What is your definition of "see"? I am guessing you are referring to IP routing, so are you able to ping across the router? Are you using RRAS available from MS or the standard components of NT?<br><br>How are the default gateways set up on each side? Did you enable IP Routing on the NIC interfaces? You should only configure one of the two NIC's with a default gateway.<br><br> <p>Doug<br><a href=mailto:dxd_2000@yahoo.com>dxd_2000@yahoo.com</a><br><a href= > </a><br>

To clarify... <br><br>All machines with Ethernet cards can see each other, but none of the token-ring machines, and vice-versa.<br>I'm only using the standard NT stuff, and setting static routes.<br><br>The gateway of the TR card is set to the usual TR gateway address. The tick is in the box on the end tab. But still it don't work!!!<br><br>Can you point out an idiot's guide???<br><br>Thanks..<br><br>Chris!!!<br>
