[ILUG] OT? IP Routing

[Kathryn Cassidy (User Account)]

I had a similar setup(ish) and found I was getting 
warnings when I had two networks using 192.168.1.x IPs 
on one and 192.168.2.x on the other. This happened even 
with the subnet mask for each as 255.255.255.0.  It 
shouldn't make the slightest bit of difference, but you 
might want to change one of the networks to the 
172.16.x.x (or the other private address range) range of 
IPs and see if it makes any difference.

Also, I wouldn't set up a default route on the NT server 
at all.  Instead I'd just set the default route of each 
client machine to be the relevant nic on the server.  
That should be sufficient info for the two networks to 
talk to eachother, I think...  At least that's the way 
I've got mine set up and it seems happy enough.
