I totally agree with the dual NIC approach. The only time I've used two NIC's in a server is if it's clustered, NIC Teaming, or it's acting as a firewall/Proxy...
The problem is I disable this NIC before and the exchange services would not start afterward. -----Original Message----- From: Chad Wasinger [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 05, 2003 9:57 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Re: "Requesting Data from Exchange Server" too much Jose, We had bad issues with a server using 2 different IP addresses. This is a bad idea, it creates 2 DNS entries for the same server which confuses AD. My issues were with a DC specifically but I can see how it is also a bad idea on any server. My suggestion is to disconnect , disable and delete the DNS record for one of the NIC's.
