Default Gateway - 2 nics

We installed 2nd nic in one of our servers. So the server has 2 nics, one (192.168.2.20) is for access to internet, while the new one (192.168.3.20) is for inter-server communication. The problem is that after reboot, 192.168.3.1 became the default gateway.
Is there a way to have 192.168.2.1 set as the Default Defaul gateway so that i dont have to manualy change 'route' every time we reboot.

Only one of those cards can have a gateway and the other one must be blank.
So 192.168.3.20 is the local network - this card will have no gateway address and all client machines on the local network will have their gateway address set to 192.168.3.20.
The second nic on the server with the address of 192.168.2.20 would have a gateway address of the router that connects to the internet - presumably it is 192.168.2.1.
client machines would route through your server to get out to the internet via the second card.
