Title: Media Server & 3 Network cards
Post by: Raistlin2000 on September 23, 2002, 11:24:06 am

HAve a little problem: I have three network cards in my machine:
- 1394 Controller (to my VAIO)
- VMWARE
- DVB-S

Problem: Media Server uses IP from Vmware network card, so I can't connect with my Vaio to the media server (wrong IP). Is there a way to choose IP for Media Server manually (means, choose the card manually?)

Or is there a way to "re-order" my cards so that Media Server uses the 1394 controller?
Thanks
Raist

I think it was confirmed earlier that Media Server binds to all ip addresses.  It just display the first one in the title bar.  If you do an "netstat -an" you should see an entry for

"TCP   0.0.0.0:yourport   0.0.0.0:0  Listening"

where "yourport" is the port the media server is listening on.

I can confirm this, I think. I have two NICs in my firewall server here at home. I run media server on that box, and it displays an internal network IP address in the title bar (192.168.0.X). But I can hit it fine from work, via the other (externally-connected) NIC.
