HI, This for a friend of mine , I'm trying to help'im out but I'm no network wiz..... Is there some way to set NCSA so that on a PC with 2 ether cards packets coming on one side (first card, thinnet) get routed to the other side (second card, thicknet)??? If NCSA cannot do it is there some other package that may do it. Budget is pretty low so we are looking for PD stuff. Any help, hint, flame ...appreciated. Thanks.

Since you're a .edu site, you can use Phil Karn's TCP/IP package AKA NET,
AKA KA9Q for free. The source for the latest version is
flash.bellcore.com:/pub/ka9q/src.arc

I'm using it to router between Token Ring and ethernet right now.
