Hi Tim.
Thanks. You understand! However, with setting up two subnets, I have the
issue of the internal server not being able to see anything but the laptop.
I'd like a way to be able to allow the internal box to access the internet
via the laptop's wireless connection...
the basic issue is I'm not sure how to configure the laptop, and the
internal server to allow the internal server to be able to access the
internet as well...
here's what i have so far.
>>>> dns
internal box <<<< >>>laptop >>>+>>> internet
192.168.2.99 (eth0) (ath0)
192.168.2.33 192.168.1.33
the laptop can access both the internal box, and the internet
the internal box can only access the laptop...
i'm trying to be able to allow the internal box to be able to access
everything that the laptop can...
thanks

I may not have understood the question,
but I would use two different subnets, say 192.168.1.* and 192.168.2.*
for the two connections.
If you are not using dhcp you can do this by specifying the IP addresses
in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-[ath0,eth0] .
I think many people have two (or more) connections active
on the same computer.
