server 2003 ip question

brendy · 9 Jul 2008 at 21:30

Guys, I need a bit of a second opinion here, im staring and just cant see the smoke for the fog.
Ive got two networks on site 192.168.0.x and 192.168.1.x
Network 192.168.0.x is connected to a server through nic1, it also has a second nic which is connected to 192.168.1.x. I want to connect both networks to the firewall so that both have internet access for windows updates, At the moment the second network has full internet access though since swapping in a new firebox x550e it has stopped the first network altogether, I can only ping internal and static isp provided ip's. so far I have tried routing and checking the firebox for anything that is specifically blocking the first network. any ideas?

So both networks can access the server ok but one has no internet access?

Have you got any sort of dns setup for the 2nd network?

How is everything actually connected ?

Not too sure what a firebox is but on the server run up routing and remote access and set up routing between the 2 networks, on the firefox set up a route so that it sends data for the second network back to the server.

If it's just for windows updates how about installing WSUS on the server. That way the machines can get there updates from there.

Iamateaf, I tried that last night but it still refused to run, I ended up throwing the original firebox back in and got it back eventually working after dhcp server service was messing about.
