Not sure if that would help. I'm using the server at a branch office. That office has two subnets, one for data and one for a VoIP solution. All I need that second card for is to make programing changes on the VoIP system from time to time. This morning that NIC tired to take over the server because I set it up wrong. Now that it is second on the list the first NIC which is in the correct subnet is in charge. I wouldn't mind using that Intel stuff on my Citrix servers though, or my NAS.

It's easy to setup using Intel PROSet that should be in your control panel. Get the most current version free from Intel site. Setup the team and configure using the IP address and options you want.

However now = people can't get to the shares on that server. I think the network is = confused as to what NIC is hosting the share. As I see in the Event Log = that there is an error stating the computer name is already in use. I = want people to be able to use the share from one card only the second = card is for administration use. Does anyone know how to disable the = second card from being used for certain things?
