Hehe, I want all the answers before I get the computer itself...cool

I'm going to do it the easiest way:
Internet connection (512 kbit...) --- 10 mbit network to P75 --- 100 mbit network to Duron 1GHz.

Is it possible to have 2 differect PCI-NICs in one computer?
If so, I'll be happy! smile

Yes you can have two nics in one computer. I have set this up under both NT4 and W2k. I would use one nic for the DSL internet connection and the second nic for my internal network. After I got my Linksys DSL router I no longer had a need to do this.

OK, I knew it was possible, but I didn't know if it worked in NT.
I will run NT4 Workstation on my server... laugh

Why would you run WinNT Workstation on your "Server". Woulnd't WinNT "Server" be better? Workstation may not have some of the functionality you will need.

Of COURSE I know, but I don't have access to Server...
I thought that it would be Server first, but then i changed...
BTW, the only thing it'll do is to run a FTP-server-prog, a web-server-prog (does NOT need NT server), and a firewall-prog.
None of these programs need NT4 Server, in fact i thought about running Win95!

Bear in mind NT Workstation is limited to 10 connections max. Just thought you should know, as this could affect your applications.

Which means?
Do you mean 10 computers or 10 connections? None of 'em should bring trouble though.
FTP - MAX 2 connections at a time
UD - MAX 1
Firewall (Is this max one or max -all the apps i use on my computer behind this one-)?
Web server - May skip this one if it's only 10 connections
