Hi All,
I have read all night about 2 NIC's in one machine (win xp), but have
no luck up till now.
Here is my setup :

NetWork A :
4 winxp computers connected to router A, which is connected to a cable
modem for internet.
Local Ip : 192.168.2.*
Subnet : 255.255.255.0



Network B:
1 WinXp Computer Connected to router B which is connected to a DSL
modem.
Local Ip : 192.168.0.*
Subnet : 255.255.10.0
To this computer i added another NIC card, which i connected to router
A.
My wish is that this computer will be able to see the local lan of
network A, but still use the internet from Network B.

I read alot about it, not understanding half of the explanations. The
other half i tried with no success.
I tried giving manual Metric for my NIC's , giving the one connected to
router B a lower Metric.
This did work and let me use the internet from B, but when trying to
access local computers the Network Places just Freezes.
When i set the metric back to automaticly, i can see all other
computers on the lan, but my internet also goes through network A, and
not using my B router.

I am lost here, played around with removing default gateways and stuff
( i dont know much what i was doing), but all with no success.

To sum it up in a few words :
Is it possible to block internet access from one NIC card, while still
giving it access to the local lan, and having another NIC for internet
access??

Thanks in advance, i cannot seem to get this figured out myself.
Eli
