Josh, this is great advice (I apologize if I hijack this thread.) So, if I have an Xserve that requires both internal and web access and I want to give the webserver its own connection via the second eth card, with a different subnet, NAT will not work correctly?

For example:
eth01 = NET>AT&T (99.x.x.x)>Router>Xserve
eth0 = internal subnet (192.x.x.x)

As of now, if the eth0 card is DHCP’ing from our router, no one can connect to the website. As soon as I deactivate the eth0 connection, site comes right up.

Are you sure no one else is logged in to that machine and mounting the same share?

Try this
cd to the share in term, then do repeating ls commands on it (at least 10x). Are you denied on EVERY ls?

Sounds strange, but its a good test. I fyou get inconsistent results its possiblie another user is logged in to the same share from the same computer.

Here is an example of the result I am referring to:

ducati:/Volumes/warthog scotts$ ls
4wm Desktop DF Tutorials User_Public ref
Desktop DB Dev User_Private office
ducati:/Volumes/warthog scotts$ ls
4wm Desktop DF Tutorials User_Public ref
Desktop DB Dev User_Private office
ducati:/Volumes/warthog scotts$ ls
4wm Desktop DF Tutorials User_Public ref
Desktop DB Dev User_Private office
ducati:/Volumes/warthog scotts$ ls
.
ducati:/Volumes/warthog scotts$ ls
4wm Desktop DF Tutorials User_Public ref
Desktop DB Dev User_Private office
ducati:/Volumes/warthog scotts$ ls
.
ducati:/Volumes/warthog scotts$ ls
4wm Desktop DF Tutorials User_Public ref
Desktop DB Dev User_Private office

Notice the inconsistent result.

Just a theory, maybe we have a bad set-up, but it happens to us too.
