I'm running Server 8 on Mac OS X Server with 2 NICs installed. Each card has a separate IP address. When starting up FileMaker Server it automatically attaches itself to the first IP address. Does anybody have a suggestion for assigning FileMaker Server to my second Network Card? The server documentation says it supports multiple interface cards but it doesn't elaborate.

Thank You

I think you'll find that you reach FMS8 through both NICs, no?

"multihoming" as it is called is supported since FMS7 and is completely controlled through the OS. FMS will use all NICs unless the OS settings restrict it.

Don't know how it's done on OSX but on Windows you can change the settings for each NIC to determine what traffic is allowed or not allowed through it.
