Routing problem, proprietary equipment



I have a network with 2 sites and a Cisco router at each site. The network
at the main site is 192.168.1.x & the network at the second site is
192.168.2.x. All existing routing is working correctly.

My problem is that I have a proprietary piece of equipment at the
192.168.2.x site that needs to run with the IP address 192.168.1.35. It is
connected to a PC that controls the equipment. I also need to get this PC
connected to the network and make it remote controllable to the workstations
on the 192.168.1.x net.

It was suggested to me by the manufacturer that I might be able to run 2
NIC's in the PC that controls this equipment. I did drop a 2nd NIC in the PC
but cannot figure out if there is any way to force the routing to deal to
with the same network number located in two different places.

Does anyone know of a way to make this work?

Am I going to be hosed until I change my networking scheme so that it allows
this piece of equipment to run on its own network subnet so that routing
works?

Any thoughts would be appreciated. I can also provide more information on
how this PC is currently configured.

Thanks,

Gary Drost
