Server internet connection

by skinnbones . Updated 19 years ago

I need help with this. Two companies (Company A & Company B) share an office and internet

connection. Company A has a DHCP/DNS server and all equipment between the companies are on

the 192.168.0.x subnet.

-> switch -> Company A’s network
/
internet -> firewall
\
-> switch -> Company B’s network

They wanted to seperate their networks, so I put a router between the firewall and Company

B’s switch and put them on the 192.168.1.x subnet. Company B also has a WIN2003 SBS server

with two nics that is also a VPN server. I have DHCP enable on the router for Company B.

Here is my problem. To get the VPN working again on the SBS server, I have one nic

connected directly to the firewall with a 192.168.0.x address and one nic with a 192.168.1.0

address connected to the switch so Company B’s users can access the server. Users can use

VPN fine and access files on the server, but the server can not get out to the internet.

Here is the nic configurations:

Nic 1
ip: 192.168.0.10
subnet: 255.255.255.0
gateway: 192.168.0.102 (address of the firewall)
pri. DNS: 192.168.1.2 (ip of server)

Nic 2
ip: 192.168.1.2
gateway: blank
pri. DNS: 192.168.1.2
alt. DNS: 192.168.0.101 (DNS used by Company A)

I know its probably a DNS issue, but I tried using the router, the SBS server, Company A’s

DNS server addresses for DNS but the server still does not connect to the internet. If

anyone has any suggestions, it will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
