Simple RAS Routing?

[msnews.microsoft.com]

I have 2 NICs in a Windows 2000 Server, one is 192.168.0.10 and the other
192.168.1.10.

0.10 is on our main network.

I have plugged a NAS box into the 1.10 NIC using a crossover cable.

The NAS box is required to be accessed from the main network, so I installed
RAS with RIP (and NAS need internet).

IP Routing table shows

192.168.0.0 192.168.0.10
192.168.1.0 192.168.1.10
+ lots of other bits

But NAS cannot ping 192.168.0.10 and local computers on 192.168.0.0 cannot
ping RAS.

Basically server is not routing. IPEnableRouter in regedit is set to 1.
Rip shows sent but no responses?

Any ideas?

You don't need RIP. What you do need is to set the router as the default
gateway for both subnets. eg

192.168.0.x dg 192.168.0.10
|
192.168.0.10 dg blank
W2k
192.168.1.10 dg blank
|
192.168.1.x dg 192.168.1.10

The router can only forward the packets if they actually get to it!

If the 192.168.0 subnet is using some other gateway, add a subnet route to
the gateway router to bounce the 192.168.1 traffic to the W2k router. eg

192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.0.10

Excellent, Thanks,

Obvious really I suppose, still I could not see it until you pointed it out.

Added the route into our default router and voila!
