HI

If i want packets to flow between Lan and serial interface
in a windows 2000 professional system then is it posible
to route between serial and NIC in same PC.


In our test setup, we have local dial-in server (say
Terminal / PC 1) and a dial-up clients (say Dialing PC/ PC
2). When we dialup (PPP mode) to a server It will assign
me a pre-defined IP. Dial-up clients are connected to our
LAN. Now we need to send data received from PC 1 to
internet thru PC 2, what all we need to setup at PC 2 ? (
NAT + Router ? ). how can we make this work when locally
allocated IPs are used to send Packets.
 
I doubt if you will be able to get this working using Pro. In W2k Server
you can use RRAS to act as both remote access server and NAT router, so that
a dialup client can get to the Internet. You need to use the netsh command
described in KB 310888 . This solution will not work with Pro. Pro does not
support NAT, only ICS.
