Take a look at my whole message. I gave a quick summary of NAT (Network
Address Translation). Also the web pages I referenced are a EXCELLENT source
of info far better than I can provide reasonably here.

In short: NAT lets you hide multiple "private" IP addresses behind your
single "public" IP address. In your case, your ISDN connection would be
assigned your "public" IP, and you'd come up with a couple of "private" IP
addresses for use between the Win95 and DOS machines. Most of the products
on the pages I referenced have pretty decent documentation covering all of
this.

But do verify that you actually can get TCP/IP running on the Ethernet NIC
under DOS, and that your DOS apps support it! It would be a shame to waste
too much time if so.
