We just installed a second NIC on a PC (WINXP Pro) that has a an additional local IP (192.168.XXX.XXX).
Since then, the user is not being able to connect to the UNIX server since Telnet Pro uses the second NIC to connect. I do not have extra licenses to enable that 2nd NIC's IP to communicate via Telnet Pro so I'm wondering how I could specify to Telnet Pro to use the 1st NIC, as usual.
Help!?

You cannot specify which NIC to use on an application by application basis. You probably just need to add a route to the server over the old NIC (if that's what it's connected to).

From a command prompt you can do a:
netstat -rn
to see your routes and use the route command with the /p switch to specify a route to the unix machine out the other NIC. You will have to get the specifics of the command to use from your network administrator.
