Help with RRAS in Win2kServer (subneting)

Hello.

I have a LAN with 5 computers.
Subnet mask 255.255.255.128
IP 192.168.2.1/2/3 and 192.168.2.129/130
4 machines with Win2000 and one Win2000 Server.
The server has only 1 nic.

I want 192.168.2.1 to communicate with 192.168.2.129.
Im not sure what to do in RRAS, have tried to googled for help without any luck.
Hope someone can help me.

Thanks!

 

I wouldn't use RRAS.

First the simple solution - change all the subnet masks to 255.255.255.0. All the PC will then talk directly.

However, as I expect you have seperated the LAN for a good reason (perhaps 192.168.2.129 is your accounts PC), the second solution is get the server on both subnets. To do that, assign a second IP address to the server's NIC. 192.168.2.254 would do nicely.

Personally I would have subneted on the third Octet. That is used 192.168.0.x for the three PC, and 192.168.1.x for the seperate PC. For greatest tweaking potential, I'd us 10.w.x.y/255.255.0.0. w would seperate the subnets, you can use x to split communicating devices (servers use 0, routers and switchs use 1, printers use 2, client PC use 10) and y gives you an individual address for each node.
