I'm glad to hear this, because I have a DEC 3000 I plan on doing this 
with.  Question:  Can I do this with just 1 ethernet card in the alpha?  I 
would like to assign 2 IP's to the same ethernet interface (le0), one from 
my non-routable ip block the other from the cable connection.  Then, run 
ipnat between the 2 subnets on the same ethernet segment.  I know 
performance will be degraded, but i would just like to know if it's 
technically possible.  My other option would be to hunt down a turbochannel 
NIC which I don't want to do if i don't have to.

Now a question about system versions.  I see the mention of 1.3I and 
1.3H.  I just downloaded and installed 1.3.3-stable.  Is this newer then 
the others listed?

TIA

It was this kind of thinking that caused the problem in the first place.
