HEY ALL! internal network/NAT question!

Post by IAMBATMAN »

my first post here- i am just tinkering around with some of this stuff... not too much experience.

i have two 2008 servers(ones the dc) and a vista client. i have them all working together right just by themselves but i would like the dm to have internet access while still having the other two vms be able to do their stuff with him. i have tried many things like having two nics on the dc one on the internal network and the other as NAT and this gives me internet access but all of my internal network functionality is gone and his ip gets assigned differently. how can i do this? it seems like a pretty common setup.

i have looked at the faq and i think it covered this but i had a hard time understanding exactly how to do it from the vms settings. a link to a previous topic where this is solved would be much appreciated. thanks! :mrgreen:

yeah i am working on using that help right now. the problem is that i am a total noob and need help with almost every step and was hoping that there was a more detailed thread or maybe another way besides having to use and ICS client. i think i might have it now though(just trying to setup ICS on xp right now)
