You'd have to do a few things, but it shouldn't be that bad. The biggest thing is going to be name resolution - you're going to have to have the three machines set with local files (hosts/lmhosts) to point to the addresses on the second subnet.
Also, make sure that you DON'T set a default gateway on the interfaces on the separate segment - there should be one and only one default gateway per machine. ------------------------------------------------------ Roger D.
