I have a home network, with a linksys router, all computers go through it, and it has it's own internet connection.

one of my computers on the network is my server, which also has it's own network connection.

server : nic1 = lan w/isp
nic2 = own isp

how do i arrange it so that i can only access the lan on nic1 (no internet allowed for the server) , and i can only only access the internet on nic2?

whenever i enable both nic's, it goes through the lan for the internet connection, but if i setup internet filtering to block only internet for the server through the router, i get nothing.

one nic at a time works fine. =1

ideas?

The router runs a DHCP server which will give nic1 an IP and a gateway address (of the router). I would suggest you try giving nic1 a fixed IP address on the LAN and omit a gatway address.
