two nics one domain one workgroup one pc ?

[art]

We are located at a clients location and we are on their
domain using their dsl. We also have a web/ftp and email
server that use its own full t1. Out ftp is very slow for
some reason even though dsl reports show us having killer
ups and downs. The web guys want to hook directly to the
ftp server internally since both servers are in our
office. The programmer and I need constant access to the
clients location for monitoring we also need access to our
web server. I tried two nics on my machine made a copy
hardware profile disabled the one from the domain network.
enabled the work group to our web server. Problem is you
log on and your still on a domain with the fully
registered dns name. So I bump down to workgroup restart.
And went back into the domain hardware profile and found
out that it was bumped to workgroup which i dont want. I
feel like im going in circles. Is there any easier route
that Im overlooking ? Any help would be much appreciated..

The domain configuration cannot be goverened via a hardware profile. Hardware profiles are only for hardware devices on the
system. As for the two NICs, I'm not sure where you are going with that. What exactly are you trying to accomplish? Are you
trying to speed up the access to the server?

Thank you,

Yeah its really slow. The web server is internal in our
office its the only machine on the full t1. They would
like to access it internally to speed up the process.
