hello all,

I have a Win2k server, connected with 2 NICs to 2
different networks (NET-1 & NET-2) through 2 different
gateways.

How do i have to setup routing, so packets coming from NET-
1 return to NET-1, packets coming from NET-2 return to NET-
2 and use NET-2 as the default gateway for outgoing
connections ?

Thank you very much in advance,


Lewis

Can you explain a little further, as in what is NET-1 and what is NET-2 and
what is considered an outgoing connection ? An Internet connection ?
 
yes,
NET-1 and NET-2 are different internet connections.

It is a multihomed win2k server, every ethernet card connects to a different
router/firewall.

As far as i know, i can have only one default gw.
So, if a connection comes from NET-1, my win2k box tries to answer through
default gw which is in NET-2.

Sorry, but you won't be able to get this working the way you would like.
Windows routing doesn't work this way. Take a look at this article for more

Is there a 3rd party software which does this job ?

Thank you anyway,
