Pinging server w/ 2 network card problem

Ok, heres my problem.. When I ping the server name, it will return the IP address on the second network card only. here is the setup..


basically it returns the IP of the second card, and not the main card, can anyone tell me why or how i can set it to return the IP of the 1st card?

1st network card..

Main card, everything is enabled

net bios
gateway
IP
DNS
Subnet


2nd network card..

Basically a storage card network

Net bios are disabled

TCPIP is only one enabled.


they are both in same computer

Re: Pinging server w/ 2 network card problem

Well, it can only return one address, think about it.


Let's see this for the computer in question.

Hold the Windows key and press R, then type CMD to open a command prompt:

In the command prompt window that opens, type type the following command:

Note that there is a space before the /ALL, but there is NOT a space after the / in the following command.

IPCONFIG /ALL

Right click in the command window and choose Select All, then hit Enter.
Paste the results in a message here.

If you are on a machine with no network connection, use a floppy, USB disk, or a CD-RW disk to transfer a text file with the information to allow pasting it here.
