Help Needed with adding 2 NICS in Winnt.sif


Recommended Posts

I want to get my IP info added to my NIC. This was easy to achieve on my old Nforce 2 and worked flawlessly.

However my Nforce 4 is a more awkward beast.

XP installs a 1394 Net Adapter and the Nforce 4 Network Controller. All other internal connections for the motherboard have been disabled in the Bios, including the native onboard Firewire Device. However I do also have a Soundblaster Audigy 2 ZS, which I believe has it's own onboard Firewire connection (which AFAIK cannot be disabled) and it is this that is installed.

I've looked into the basic principle of adding 2 NIC adapters, with my aim being to try and add the IP info to the Nforce adapter with no success. I know that adapter identification can be based on the INFID, MAC address and/or PCIBus No. Heres al the info I've managed to glean so far. Maybe someone can help me to work out what I'm missing out or doing wrong.

[Networking]
  InstallDefaultComponents=No

[NetAdapters]
  Adapter1=params.Adapter1
  Adapter2=params.Adapter2

[params.Adapter1]
  ConnectionName="1394 Net Adapter"
  INFID=V1394\NIC1394\510A4CCD23C01

[params.Adapter2]
  ConnectionName="NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller"
  INFID={1a3e09be-1e45-494b-9174-d7385b45bbf5}\NVNET_DEV0057

[NetClients]
  MS_MSClient=params.MS_MSClient

[NetServices]
  MS_SERVER=params.MS_SERVER

[NetProtocols]
  MS_TCPIP=params.MS_TCPIP

[params.MS_TCPIP]
  DNS=Yes
  UseDomainNameDevolution=No
  EnableLMHosts=No
  AdapterSections = params.MS_TCPIP.Adapter1,params.MS_TCPIP.Adapter2

[params.MS_TCPIP.Adapter1]
  SpecificTo=Adapter1
  DHCP=Yes
  IPAddress=
  SubnetMask=
  DefaultGateway=
  DNSServerSearchOrder=
  WINS=No
  NetBIOSOptions=0

[params.MS_TCPIP.Adapter2]
  SpecificTo=Adapter2
  DHCP=Yes
  IPAddress=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
  SubnetMask=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
  DefaultGateway=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
  DNSServerSearchOrder=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx,xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
  WINS=No
  NetBIOSOptions=0

This doesn't seem to work, any ideas ?
