    Question Windows 2003 + Networking?

    I have a Windows 2003 Server machine with two network interfaces.

    One card to the internet connection, and the other card to the rest of the network.

    How do I get the traffic to flow through this computer? I'm not too network savvy at this point.

    I tried to bridge connections but that just killed the internet connection.

    I tried to do internet connection sharing but it was going to change my LAN address to 192.xxx.xxx.xxx and I can't have that.

    If there is some other way to do this, any help would be appreciated.

    Ironically I've actually seen those.

    Not sure how they help me.

    I think you need to run the "routing and remote access" snap-in.

    Goto "Start" - "All Programs" - "Administrative Tools" - "routing and Remote Access"

    Take it from there. Its fairly simple.

    I think windows help has a kind of walk through for setting up the server as an Internet access server on your network. Keep in mind it has a built in firewall (rudimentary).
    Windows 2003 SBS has all this in wizards, so I would imagine the standalone version also has something similar.
    It would be a good idea to read up as much as possible on this topic since configuring your server incorrectly to connect to the big bad Internet could result in disaster. I have at least 100 attempted admin logins to our server every day.
    Keep at it, the longer you struggle the better you end up knowing the product!
