Hi Bruce,
Yes. It is possible to configure 2 NICs in the same PC. You can also multinet (assign
both IPs to the same NIC without adding another physical NIC). Keep in mind though,
that NetBIOS will only bind to one of these logical interfaces. From the description
of what services you are accessing, this does not seem to be an issue. You will also
need to set up some static routes on the NT box, to ensure that the proper paths are
taken. This may be the cleanest solution. I have done this type of scenario over NT,
but have not tried to do this over 95/98, although I do believe it's possible.
I can also think of a more sophisticated way in which this could be handled, although
it is probably a little over the top.
A) Configure the client with an address within your assigned network (subnet of your
router).
B) Multinet your router (to also contain an IP within AT&Ts assigned range).
C) configure a static route on your router to allow a path to the Notes server, via
the AT&T router.
D) Configure address translation on your router to translate your address to an
address within the AT&T assigned range, such as the address you multinet to the
router's interface.
Good Luck and Have FUN!
