I have a Dell PowerEdge T105 with Windows Server 2008 Operating System. I also, have Dell Optiplex GX270 with Windows XP Operating System (Each XP Unit has two lan Cards to connect). The Windows XP Computers connect to the server through cat5 cable into a Dell Power Connect 2224 which the server is connected too. At the same time each Windows XP connects through a netgear router to get on the Internet. I cannot have both the internet and Office network connected at the same time. It will work for a moment then lock up.
I have norton protection. In Norton’s firewall i have permitted the IP Addresses for both Connections. Is there a way I can allow both connections to stay alive at the same time. PS: Protecting Accounting Information is the reason i have the server not connected directly to the internet. If you have any suggestion on how to solve this problem, I would appreciate it without making me vunerable.
Thank You,
Bldr Bob :~)
