Just a minor technical correction -- it is *possible* to do this with 1 NIC
and the ip_alias.o module. Given how cheap NICs are, though, that isn't an
approach I'd recommend ... it complicates setup quite a lot and introduces
security risks, especially on a cable-modem network. (I've never done it
myself, but people on the [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list have
described the setup in the context of that mini-distribution.)
