Make sure you are using the correct cables. For instance, if you directly plugged a computer into the server's 2nd nic you should use a cross-over cable. Otherwise, plug a switch into the 2nd nic and plug your computers into the switch and see if it works.

Hi desiredforsome:

Did you set up RRAS in router mode using the wizard?

Aslo, what are you running DHCP on, the RRAS server? Did you install the DHCP relay on RRAS too? Can you give a few more details on the general setup?
