Yes, we need more information. How did you set up NAT? What NIC-information and what options? And what about the gateways in your NIC information?

Quick run through on the set up...

This is a Windows 2003 server with 2 NIC cards in it. One of them gets an IP via DHCP from my ISP and the other one is the static IP set for my internal network. The servers roles are AD, DNS, VPN & NAT, Remote Access, DHCP.

The problem is this...

When I have both of the NIC cards active, I get no internet activity on the server or any of the clients. If I were to disable the LAN NIC, which is the static address for my internal network, then the server has access to the internet. If I enable it again, everything gets shut down again.

I was able to just click and play around with my DNS snap-in and it finally worked a few times, now it is broken. This happens everytime I restart and get a new IP from the DHCP server from my ISP. No matter what I do, I can not get it to work. I do not know if this is a DNS issue, a NAT issue or what, but this was the only group I can figure to post in. If this is wrong please tell me a better group to post in.

I am sure you guys will need more information, I am not at home right now but can probably answer most questions from memory. Thanks guys, this is something I can not get my head around and it is bothering me.



I am not sure what you mean by 'setup NAT', it is kind of the default properties. The LAN card is set to do the NAT options and the Internet NIC is set to interface with the internet.

The gateway on the NIC card is setup as the SERVER static IP on the LAN card, 192.168.1.20. The gateway on the other card is whatever my ISP assigns it, I can't remember that off the top of my head.

Am I leaving anything else out or mis-interpreted?
