Best solution: LAN to Internet? 1

[olekr]

Hi!
We have a TCP/IP-LAN with Win2K Server. Our hub is connected to a DSL-router in a VLAN. Our VLAN has 10.0.1.99 as a gateway which all LAN-clients use. But is this the best way? Is it better to use a proxy on Win2KS and lets say 192.168.1.x for LAN-clients? Very unsure of the LAN design here. Can you help?

My suggestion is that you use a proxy server. There is a free one that is pretty good. AnalogX is the name of the proxy software. What you need to do is put an additional network card in your server. Have one network card with the address of 10.0.1.99 and the other with an internal address 192.168.100.100. Then configure all the local clients to go through that proxy server for internet connections.
