Combining two networks
This is a discussion about Combining two networks in the Windows Networking category; Im using two network cards in one Computer. One card is a 10mb combo which is connected to one other machine using a BNC cable. The other card is connected to a 100mb switch which has a further 3 machines on it.
Im using two network cards in one Computer.
One card is a 10mb combo which is connected to one other machine using a BNC cable. The other card is connected to a 100mb switch which has a further 3 machines on it.
To get this configuration to work i have to route each machine's ip address to the NIC that it is connected to.
This way i can connect to all the machines on the network at once, and everyone else can connect to my machine.
The problem is that machines connected with BNC cannot see the machines on the switch, and vice versa.
Is there anyway that i can combine the two networks so that every machine can see one another?

Enable IP forwarding on the box with 2 NICs. That *should* do it. If not, you may have to configure Routing and Remote Access.
