Hi Christoph, To the best of my knowledge, the answer to your question is no, it would not help you. You cannot manually force the RPS to use a NIC in that fashion. In my experiences with IS I have seen a couple of reason that no NIC appears in the RPS tab of the Tools\Option menu and it is usually due to one of the following:
1) The NIC is not properly bound to TCP/IP or 2) There enough card data in the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\Tcpip\Linkage" Bind REG_MULTI_SZ registry value to overflow the RPS data buffer and thereby cause it to see nothing. This has been addressed by ISS in the next release of IS, but as for now the only way to correct it if this is the problem is to disable and then uninstall all your adapters in the Network Adapters section of Device manager, then delete any info in the above mentioned value as well as the corresponding ControlSet002 and CurrentControlSet values, then reboot. This never was a problem in NT because NT never keep the device class guid in this registry value, but Win2K does. Hope that helps in some way. If you are hesitant to do the registry edits I understand, obviously we do these things at our own risk. Lynn E.

On multihomed W2K pro machines actually Internet Scanner is not supported due to a problem of the raw packet server. Therefore I usually disabled all NICs except one I used for scanning. Usually this worked well. But now I have a problem that the Internet Scanner does not show a NIC in the options menu of the IS. In the registry I found the RawPacketServerNIC in "HKLM\Software\ISS\Internet Scanner\Config". When starting an scan with the Raw Packet Server, the MAC address of the used NIC is written there for the time of scanning. What will happen if I write the MAC address in there? Any ideas or experience?
