Windows 2003 Network q

HI
How can I get 2003 server to except incoming connections from the net from 2
deferent gateways .

Some more info:
I have to line's coming in, both has a deferent wan address for example
mail.domain1.com and mail.domain2.com, the one come's in on one gateway and
the other on a deferent gateway the server has 2 nic's etch pointing to one
of the gateway's but the server only uses one gateway and then only excepts
connections coming in from that gateway. Is there a way to get the server to
listen on both ???

Please help and don't brake something laughing at the question if it's to
simple LOL

Hi,

Can you gives us IP addresses that you use on these subnets (e.g. if you use
private address)? That way it will be easier for us to help you out.

In general, what you can do is use static persistent routes to route traffic
for specific subnets to different gateways.

the ip addresses i use for this is not private but public addresses

both nic's and both gateway's are on 196.15.212.x
subnet 255.255.255.192

Please keep in mind I'm a bit of a newbie.

Thanks for the quick response

What do you want to achieve by using multiple gateways?

Here are some articles on the subject:
