We have a MacII and two ethernet cards.  Is it possible to use the mac
as a Gateway between two ethernets?  We are planning on putting our
Mac lab onto ethernet for speed yet we do not want the mac lab to
share the unix  e-net backbone.  However we still want to maintain access
to unix for telnet etc. If it is possible we would like to use the MacII
as a Router or Gateway.  Is there special router software to do this?
Could the MacII be a software server for the mac lab as well as route
ethernet packets?

Thanks for any insight you can offer to my questions!!
