My CISCO router went dead on me at a remote location.
I tried to whip up a quick temp. router solution with
a server that already had two nic cards in our
network.
10.0.0.0 , 11.0.0.0 
I added a third nic to connect to our 192.168.0.0
network. I addressed all the nic cards and on the
server I was able to ping the 3 networks. But I was
not able to route traffic.
I recall seeing a checkbox in NT that would enable you
to forward ip packets but I couldn't find it in win2k.
I'm assuming in XP it's in the same area.
I think I could had added static routes statements to
the server but I was hoping that I could enable
"routing" on the server till I get me RMA from cisco
next business day.
Anyways, I coax the router back to life so it's ok but
I'm still curious.

thanks all

Mark
