how to tie two networks together with RAS

[Justin Rich]

I have a small private network (lan within a lan) that i would like
accessible from my workstations.
im not sure if this is possible but i thought i would play around with it a
little.

not really sure how to explain this best but i have a server that has two
network cards. one card is for an internal network (192.168.0) which is used
mainly to manage my dell RAC cards. the other nic is a 132.183.36.222 and my
workstation is 132.183.34.x

so i would like to set up RAS as a router to route requests from the 132.183
network to the 192.168.0 network. (bridge?)

also on top of that the general population of the network wont be aware of
this so i need to tell my workstation that it should pass any packets
heading to the 192.168.0 network to the 132.183.36.222 address. I assume i
would use Route to create a static route but im not entirely sure how to do
this (tried a handful of things that it didnt like)

I guess this makes it more like a NAT and not so much just a standard route
but there are obviously some limitions with NAT's which make this difficult.

at any rate, any input you guys could provide would be greatly appreciated.

thanks
Justin

Correct, you may need to add route. This case study may help,

RoutingOne router goes to the corporation email server and another one goes to the Internet. Symptoms: you have one router connecting to the corporation for email ...
