Multihome server is actualy a poor man router!!
connect two or more networks or subnets together.
Net Bios in Windows NT is by default. You need add static route to this server. for example, in NIC 1 you set the ip address of 10.0.0.1/8 and NIC # 2 with 10.0.1.1/8, clearly you should have PC on each side of the NIC setup ip address respectively to its subnet, for example: a PC sits on NIC #1 should have 10.0.0.2/8, or a PC sit on NIC #2 side should an address such as 10.0.1.2/8 done with the basic. on the MH server you need to add a default gateway static route to one of the NIC your choice, for example if your already configure the NIC#1 with its default gateway in the network configuration property. then in th ecommand line add thisline to its route. 'route add -p 10.0.1.0 mask 255.0.0.0 10.0.1.1' explain NT network configuration will not understand two default gateway settings, the OS will confuse and with expected routing error...
but it will accept one default gateway from the network configurationproperty, and a static rotue , any request for subnet 10.0.1.0, static route is used, and the set gateway is the NIC #2
any others, defaull gateway will be used (NIC #1)
LMHOST file is helpful but its only local to a single PC, If you wan to use it, the best place should be th MH server, this server will also assuming the Master browser and will in time resolve name. with out WINS you will have some dificulty to resolve name, but LMHOST will help as much. I hope this help. There are security concern on this method, Like I said, this is a poor man router, therefor not much security...
