New Re: What's not to understand???
You need to set up a second hardware profile on the box. This is the only way to have two sets of network settings on the same physical card - SHORT OF actually binding two different IP addresses to the same card. Trust me, you don't want to do that.

This is a terrible idea! Even if it works (no intervening switch to drop packets, unlikely on a corporate net) it's a horrible violation of good network administration.

Like bollocks it is. And in usual hit'n'run fashion, there's no exposition of why my perfectly working solution to Christian's problem is "terrible".

You're getting very good at spouting impressive-sounding but fundamentally broken advice, Ross.

New Re: What's not to understand???

You simply don't run logically distinct networks on the same segment! As mentioned below, if the need for that arise (say, you're an ISP doling out IP address ranges on a given subnet) then you manage it with custom netmasks.

This is elementary IP networking.

New You're doing it again!
Just saying "I am Ross, hear me roar, this is the way it is" cuts no ice with me.

Either explain yourself or SHUT UP.
