Been there, done that. It's moderately easy once you set the IRQs and such
of your NICs. Here's the line I added to my /etc/lilo.conf to do mine:

    append="ether=7,0x280,eth0 ether=9,0x300,eth1"

First field is IRQ. Your mileage may vary. You have to know the IRQ and
memory address (?) of your cards before you start. I believe I had to run a
DOS utility to set mine via software, but I'm using older 3COM Etherlink
IIIs. I just made a MASQ machine at the office that uses newer 3COM Fast
Etherlink XLs and I don't recall doing that.

Also, once you change your lilo.conf, don't forget to run lilo from the
command line. I always forget to do that. Doh!

Subject: [Masq] installing a second network card



Hello,
I have a cable modem and I want my linux computer to use IP masq. I've
installed Red Hat 6.0 and upgraded the kernel to 2.2.9. Now I have one
problem that is not really a IP MSAQ problem but it has to do with it
because you need 2 nic's to get it to work. My problem is that Linux
only auto detects one card. I have one Intel card that Linux detects
and one Linksys card that linux detect. There is no problem with the
card because I've  tried it in Linux and it works when it is in there
by itself. How do I get Linux to detect my second network card?

thanks,
         Kalle
