2 network cards

[ian.griffin]

I have a PC on a Unix network, we also have a Windows
network with a server running 2000 server. I would like to
be able to put this same PC on the windows network as
well. The PC is running windows XP Pro.

Is it possible to put this PC on both networks and if it
is how do I do it?

Just do it. ;-)

Install two network cards. Connect one to each network. Everything
should work, provided that the networks use different IP subnets.

I recommend checking with the administrators of both networks to see
if they have any security or other concerns about your proposed setup.
