NW Server 7.3.2 with two NICs
Hi,
I have a NW server ( W2003 R2) with two NICs ( production and management). I have 14 clients with only one NIC (production).
Yesterday after I rebooted the NW server I could not access any information through my Management Console. After some investigation, I found that Networker was listening on the wrong NIC (management). I disabled the management NIC and rebooted the NW Server and everything came back OK.
Is there any way I can configure Networker to listen on a specific NIC so the problem does not happen again?
Thank you for your help.
Regards
Habib

NW server by default listens on primary NIC. If that changes (as it sometimes does in Windows world) you may get this issue.

But how can I get NW to listen to a particular IP or NIC. Is there a configuration settings? or registry entry?

Thanks again.
I understand the client setting side.
Is there a way this can be configured in NW itself so the settings does not change if the server get rebooted...etc?
