Hi.

One way to do it.

You server should be connected to the Cable service Directly.

Your DSL should be connected using Cable/DSL Router and the LAN's computers
(not the server) should be plugged into the Cable/DSL Router.

 Install a second NIC in the server and use WinXP Native Bridging in the
Server to Bridge the two Networks.
