Under linux, I mount (among other things), /home over nfs, so that when I log in to any linux computer, I have the same files available. Under windows, I map a drive letter (H:) to an SMB share of my home directory, accomplishing roughly the same thing. I do this all on one network. I use another machine (on the same network) as a router/gateway/firewall to my dial-up account. Now, are you serving 3 computers with your nfs/smb linux box in roughly the same way as I am? Is there some reason you want to use two different NICs? -- Did you know that if you play a Windows 2000 cd backwards, you will hear the voice of Satan? That's nothing! If you play it forward, it'll install Windows 2000.
