I would like to set up a webserver. I have a machine running on windows 2000 server, with 2 network cards.One with a private address and the other public address. I cannot browse the internet from the webserver. What should I do to access the internet? When other machines are configured with the same address they work

If you have two nic cards then one is probably connected to the internet. If you want a webserver then I suggest using IIS 5 or apache. You can configure the IIS on an interface that you want. Apache you can configure to listen on both interfaces. I do not know if IIS can listen on both. But you can get winroute and set it up so that all traffic that comes in on nic2 goes out of nic1 and vice versa. I do this for a home network scenario.
