How to bridge two network connections on Ubuntu?

I'm toying around with ubuntu + LTSP. I've managed to get the computers to boot off the network card "eth0". "eth1" is facing the internet. How would I go about the process to bridge the connections so the ltsp clients can access the net?

They should be able to do that already. Every ltsp distro I have worked with did not have not problem. Really you do not want to bind the nics for security reasons and also not have the dhcp server confuse the existing network. Sounds like your nic setup could be foobarred.

Thanks. I've toyed around a bit and the internet works. so i won't touch anything and leave it how it is :-)
