bridging connections


Is it possible to do something similar to the "bridging connections" that you can do in winxp, i have server with two NIC's, and want the two other pc's to be able to see each other through this server. is that possible with linux?


Also:

Can i share the internet to the two other computers?

Can i share my printer to the two other computer?

TIA

Ok, Newbie here, is bridging very difficult? Don't suppose you know of a site with step by step instructions?

I'm running mandrake 9.2

NAT = ?

Is that similar to running internet connection sharing from windoze?
