What about the Linux box itself?  Forget, for the moment, whether my other
boxes will be able to see the main office network.  If I want my Linux box to
be visible to both the private home office network and to also be able to use
the ISDN router (which, incidentally, will have a fixed IP address on the main
office network and is NOT logically a part of my private network) to
succesffuly participate as a node on the main office network, do I need two
NICs or do I assoign two IP addresses to my one NIC?
