We have a number of Novell file servers and workstations on our main Ethernet. 	
One particular group want some security and therefor want their server and
workstations on a seperate network. All OK so far.  However, we have
some gateways (TCP/IP and IBM 3270) on the main server which we don't
want to duplicate.  If we install a second ethernet card in their server
connected to the main ethernet are the following true.
1) A Novell server can support two ethernet cards connected to two
networks?
2) Is the traffic on the sub-net invisible and secure from the main ethernet?
