[COMP] Re: networking protocol question

how do I set up sharing with ip addresses on the win boxes?

can I use the ip addys assigned by the router?

umm, <thinking aloud here...>

perhaps I should tell the router about the intranet being a
static ip?

or can I make the 9x boxes have a static ip...what will that do
to
the router assigning ip addresses...

umm, how do you tell the nic it is gonna have 2 ip addresses?

If I make the nic have a static ip will the router still assign
it's
192.168.xx.xx and still be connected to the internet?

thanks
