Server 2003 setup help

craigrg · 11-03-2009, 12:41 AM

Hi people

. This is my first post. Hope some one can help me here.

I have just installed server 2003 enterprise on a Dell power edge 1600SC.

As far as i am aware the server is set up right.
I am unable to connect the clients to the server.

DCHP is disabled on the router.

ISP Status from router

IP 192.168.0.19
DG 192.168.0.1

I set the server scope to 192.168.1.10 - 192.168.1.50

I have two NIC installed. how do i know if i have DHCP set up right on the server?

does this look right in DHCP?

Router - 192.168.1.1
DNS Server - 192.168.1.5 , 192.168.0.1
DNS Domain Name - Penhill
WINS/NBNS Server - 192.168.1.5 , 192.168.0.1
WINS/NBT Node Type - 0x8

the first NIC connected to the router is set to the following
settings

Use following IP
IP 192.168.1.5
SubNet: 255.255.255.0
DG 192.168.1.1
Use following DNS
Preferred DNS 192.168.1.5

The second which is connected to the local Network is set to
the following setting

Use following Ip Address

IP 192.168.1.6
Subnet 255.255.255.0

Use the following DNS
127.0.0.1

Try pinging the server, to test if the server replies.
