I also have tried doing something similar and had problems. I have nat
running on my machine with modem access to internet. I can then access
the internet from other machines inside my home. However, I also have 
two ethernet cards in the machine for two separate internal networks.
(I have old legacy 10-base-2? coaxial ethernet stuff). With nat off, I
can access the two networks from each other (10.1.0.0 and 10.2.0.0)
but when I enable nat, the connection between the two seems to break
with what I assume is nat occuring on all addresses not on the same
ethernet segment. Can I fix this?
