Connect a 2nd nic to a domain controller

[Rick Roberts]

I connected a 2nd network card to my domain controller,
but began to have problems with login connections. My
intent was to divert some disk storage traffic thru the
2nd card, leaving everything else as was.

I had added a disk raid to my server to replace some disk
space on an old ailing one and didn't want to interrupt
service levels of apps already running on the original
setup.

How do I properly set up the 2nd card so it doesn't
interfere with logons by nt4 and 2k desktops?

Thanks in advance,
Rick

Put it on a different logical subnet.
