Doubt in configuring IDS for multiple network cards.

Hi people, My server have to work in two different subnets, but with the same dbservername, so I can't do the bellow configuration (like manual says): in $INFORMIXDIR/etc/sqlhosts online_tcp1 onsoctcp hostname1 service1 online_tcp2 onsoctcp hostname2 service2 and it didn't work if I put the same dbservername with two different hostanames. If somebody have one solution or idea ... Thanks ! Christian. ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com

all you need is a NIC that supports subnet grouping. Nona >Subject: Doubt in configuring IDS for multiple network cards. >From: "Christian Kondo" christian_hk@hotmail.com >Date: 28.03.00 21:08 W.

you have heard what the clowns have had to say about subneting... Now here is the answer. You need is a multi-port NIC that can group subnets together. Adaptec sells that kind of NIC. The card has 4 ports that can be logically grouped to one ip address. Up to 3 of those NICs can also be bundled so that up to 3x4 or 12 subnets are on one dbsevername. With the NIC or NICs in place you get your subnets all tied into one server.

Actually the easiest way to access your server from multiple subnets is to simply wildcard your sqlhosts entry for the server. Then restart it. Your sqlhosts would look something like this: server_1 ontlitcp *hostname inf_service This causes online to listen on all available ip addresses. The server is now accessible from any subnet by the name server_1.
