By putting the IP address of the _server's_ NIC that you want to use into
the client's 'Server Network Interface' field, you will accomplish the
purpose you want, because the standard IP routing software will make this
happen.

Subject: Re: [Networker] Need help in configuring backup LAN
I'm just wondering whether you can actually force the client to use
CLIENT_CR for backup. In your configuration (as well as mine), nowhere was
that stated/forced, so SERVER_CR can very well communicate with CLIENT.
I have tried out your setup, but when I do 'netstat -a', I still manage to
grep CLIENT_CR establishing communication with SERVER.

software I configure both SERVER and SERVER_CR as known servers. When
setting up the client via the NWADMIN GUI you name the client with its real
name, i.e CLIENTand you enter SERVER_CR in the Server Network Interface
section. You won't see this unless you select View - Details. You may also
want to enter the SERVER_CR and its I.P. address in your clients /etc/hosts
file and the CLIENT_CR entry in your servers /etc/hosts file. BTY, you can
configure the server list by editing the /etc/init.d/networker file on your
clients.
