Thanks for the help. Unfortunately I can't put them all
on the same subnet. The private network has to stay
private and can't be on our normal subnet. You are
correct in saying :

That is the dilema. What would be the problem with
assigning two different IPs to the one nic? Would it be
better to have 2 nics? We are currently only using one nic
on the server but I could buy another nic and add a static
IP on the other subnet range. Would that solve the
problem of the server not finding the private gateway?
