I need to take a desktop with 2 eth. interfaces and make
it a bridge. My only criteria is that it be on a Windows
2000 server. Does anyone have experience with this or able
to provide me a doc or literature on how to accomplish
this?

Thx

There is no bridging software included in WIndows 2000. Why do you want to
bridge the interfaces instead of route across them?

In addition to Marc's reply, why turn a server into a router? You can pick
up a cheap and cheerful hardware router and take the load off your
server....

I need to do the same for a VPN server to allow remote users to gain
access to my resources.
