Please don’t ask me exactly how this happened. All I know is that I started messing with bridging network cards. I shouldn’t have done it. I’m a bad boy.
The NICS are no longer bridged, but now I can only ping one of the two IP addresses. This screws up DNS and some of my client machines that look for the server by its name can’t find it. I suspect this is slowing my network way down too.
The specs are:
Windows 2003 Server
LAN 1 IP: 192.168.1.6
Sub: 255.255.0.0
GW:
DNS: 127.0.0.1
LAN 2 IP: 192.168.1.7
Sub: 255.255.0.0
GW: 192.168.1.1
DNS: 127.0.0.1
Both IPs are set as DNS through DHCP. I can ping LAN2, but not LAN1. What other info should I be looking at or what should I try in order to get the other NIC to work again? Thank you for your time.
