My problem is to connect two different networks with Win XP. I want to use 2
ethernet card. One is to connect for all internet activities with real IP,
the other is to connect one computer via VPN.The compuer is a firewall/router
and two servers is working with virtual IPs (10.2.x.y).

If I connect the firewall via VPN, I am loosing my Internet connection.
Because my current IP is virtual. If my current IP is real IP, then I can not
connect the servers directly.

Is there any way such that the OS (Win XP) is automatically selects the
related ethernet in terms of my requirement (e.g. internet, connecting
servers)

You can do this by changing your router table (route print from a
command prompt). You would set the 0.0.0.0 network on the internet
accessible address card with a low metric number.

This is not a task that is user friendly, so please beware.
Check
http://www.microsoft.com/resources/d...-us/route.mspx
for information on the route command.

Also note that when you connect to a remote system by VPN, you are
setting the VPN connection as your default gateway (thus, directing
all of your internet connections to use the VPN). You can change this
by referring to information at
http://www.csupomona.edu/~ehelp/vpn/...#gateway_check

Have a pleasant day.
