Hi,
 I have 8 ips assigned by my isp, I want to use some of them for web hosting
etc. Currently I have a Linksys router which is handling my internet
connection, this only allows me to use one ip. My question is can W2K3 be
setup as a router? DSL Modem to nic number 1, nic number 2 to a hub and the
rest of computers assigned through the hub?
Can W2K3 do the routing? I know Linux can do this, is there a similar
feature to W2K3 ?
All help welcome.
Patrick
