Hi,
Thanks for using the SBS newsgroup! Also thanks for Leonid's input.
For your description, I understand that you have some questions about setup
two SBS domain in one physical network.
To make two SBS domains running in one physical network, and both SBS
server box provides DHCP service for themselves domain network, the easier
way is that using a router to classify the both SBS network in different
subnet region.
One computer can just belong to one domain even with both NICs. If you want
one user can access another SBS domain resources and work as that domain
client computer, you can setup VPN connection between them. You can refer
to the following articles to setup VPN server and configure VPN client.

Hope it helps! If you have any further question on the issue please let me
know. I am happy to be assistance of you and look forward to your reply!
Merry Christmas!
