I have a lab on campus with its own subnet of a private
network, and also a network at home with another subnet.
They are currently connected with a PPP link.  One of
the lab machines has two ethernet cards, and acts as a
gateway for both subnets.  The campus network is set up
so that the other machines in my private network cannot
directly access campus or outside addresses.

I would like one of the machines in my home subnet to
have "direct" Internet access.  What I'd like to do is
to add a second ethernet card to one of the lab machines,
and connect that card to another port on the campus network.
Then I'd like to run

	natd -redirect_address <home_ppp_ip> <second_ether_ip>

I think this would essentially create a virtual wire
between the home machine and the port on the campus
system, so that the PPP connection acts like a direct
connection to the campus system--is this correct?
