Hi Rex Networking is not my speciality but you should be able to add a HOST route - see the BEGINROUTES statement in IP Config Reference. Something like this:
ROUTE windows server IP address. HOST = OSA_INTERFACE2 where OSA_INTERFACE2 is the interface which you want to use. This example assumes that the server is on the same subnet as the adapter - change - to the router IP address if not. No guarantees.
