More Routing Questions

[Franco Saliola]

This doesn't really answer your question. I've had to do something
similar a few times, but for temporary use. I set up a dhcp server on
the machine with the extra ethernet card and setup ip
forwarding/masquerading. I have a file with the steps I took to set it
up should you be interested.
