Hi everyone,

i've still got problems getting the internet on my desktop which is connected to an access server via a crossover cable.

I'm still not sure whether it is possible, my server has got two NIC's in it(1 ATM & 1 Ethernet Card)the ATM card is the one which is used for internet requests(registered IP address)and the other card is connected to my desktop via the crossover cable.

both of the machines ethernet cards have a 192.168.*.* ip range and the ATM card in the server has a 212.250.**.*** and a gateway of 212.250.**.***

What I am not sure of is what i need to set the gateway to on the servers ethernet card because it must be on the same range i.e 192.168.*.*

The internet works on the server, i acn ping the servers ATM card from the desktop, i can ping the desktop from the server, IP forwarding is enabled.....what am i doing wrong?

I appologise if this isn't making much sence but i have been sitting here for far to long now.

Thank you to anyone who can help.

Cheers.

Set the IP address for the NIC that connects to your other machine to 192.168.0.1. The NIC for the Internet connection will use your ISP info.

Then on your second machine set its IP to 192.168.0.2. And make its default gateway 192.168.0.1.

Is this what you are looking for?

Not really, I've got the IP address on the server set to 192.168.0.1 but i don't know what to put here as the gateway.

On the desktop(client pc) i've set the ip to 192.168.0.2 and the gateway to 192.168.0.1, that bits ok i think.

The problem is i can't change any of the settings on the servers ATM card because it is used to host a web page and has static ip's and stuff.

I hope this makes sense!!

The server`s default gateway should be assigned by your ISP.

Example, mine is 24.xx.xx.xx
