3324 routing issues

Hello -
     Woops, had a mistake there.  Anyhoo, here's my situation.  I have a dell powerconnect 3324 setup with two vlans.  vlan 1 is on the 192.168.2.0 network, vlan 2 is on the 192.168.1.0 network.  A user on the 192.168.2.0 needs to be able to use remote desktop to get to one of our servers on the 1.0 network, and he is the only one that needs access from the 2.0.  We set up a trial lab first, with a cisco 2610 router, and a cisco catalyst 2950.  Everything worked just fine, with access lists and both ethernet ports set up on the cisco router.  We were able to get everything to work in our lab situation.  But when we brought the cisco router over and hooked it up to the dell switch, it stopped working.  The ethernet interface on the 192.168.1.0 network could not ping the machine we needed.  We think there is some issue with the powerconnect that is stopping us from working.  Is there some default setting on this switch which would cause some problems here?  Is there anything special to know about this switch.  Btw we have looked through the online guide and find nothing helpful in troubleshooting this.  We have verified that the router is not the issue.  Thanks in advance for any help,

Did you make sure that the ports connected to the router are set to forward the vlan traffic untagged? PVID set properly? I know that's one thing I had a problem with switching from Cisco to Dell. Cisco - you added a port to the vlan and were done. Dell, you have to set the ports primary vlan ID (PVID) and then also specify what vlans are allowed to communicate with that port. Can you post your config (or at least part of it)?

Thanks a lot, I think we got it all squared away.  It would be a lot easier to just go with the cisco, but they get a little spendy.  Have a good one,
