the main server is 194.125.10.1
second pc is 192.168.1.4
the dsl is 192.168.1.254 (to connect to the router for the )internet
each pc i create an ip as follows
ip:192.168.1.6
deault gateway:192.168.1.254 --->router
pref dns:194.125.10.1---->main server (jobs)
alter dns server192.168.1.254 ----->router
in advanced i have two ip (192.168.1.6 and 194.125.10.7)

Hi
means my job server with ip 194.125.10.1 will be 192.18.1.2..
and each pc i create one ip
like :
192.168.1.x
default gateway:192.168.1.254
pref:192.168.1.1
alter:192.18.1.254

This solution is only available to members.
To access this solution, you must be a member of Experts Exchange.
I would put ALL the machines on the same subnet, for example:
each pc i create an ip as follows
ip:192.168.1.x
deault gateway:192.168.1.254 --->router
pref dns:192.168.1.1---->main server (jobs)
alter dns server192.168.1.254 ----->router
Reassign your servers to be on the same subnet
Main server: 192.168.1.1
Secondary server: 192.168.1.2
Now even if your internet goes down everything inside the lan can still communicate.
remember to take out any statically assigned IPs from your DHCP pool
If your man server is at a different location your will not be able to connect to it if your internet is down. Sorry, the only option would be to get a back up cable/dsl connection.
Good luck!
