It will probably still break MS browsing unless you disable Netbios over
TCP/IP on the second NIC. The browser service is an NT legacy app and uses
Netbios names and broadcasts (and WINS if you have it installed). Multihomed
browsers were a problem in NT and they still are!

create vlans. One for your public network and one for the giga/san
