Forcing NFS to use 2nd NIC

Hi All,

I confirmed that one NIC is running at 10speed, and
seems not capable of 100!! [ vmunix: tu0: DEC TULIP
(10Mbps) Ethernet Interface, DECchip 21040: Revision:
2.3]. This tru64 box(BOX1) has 2 NICS, other is
100speed.

I have to mount filesystems from another tru64box
(BOX2), but the nfs mounts have to go thru BOX1_nic2

What i tried:: On BOX2, I exported the file systems to
only BOX1_nic2.
when i try to mount BOX2:/filesystem, i get::
Can't access BOX2:/filesystem, permission denied.

More Info::All NICS are on the same local LAN, so no
routing issues.
Conclusion:: Mount requests only go out thru the
primary interface, in this case, BOX1_nic1, which is a
slow 10speed NIC!!

Question:: How can this be overcomed? (I Read again
and again manpages of mountd, mount, nfs, nfsd,
portmap....to no avail)

_Thanks in advance....

Richard
