Hardware Requirements for Multiple IPs

[Robert L Cochran <cochranb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I was recently issued a second IP address of bbb.bbb.bbb.bbb through my 
ISP. This is over DSL. I just want to clarify an issue with delivery of 
data on this IP address. I will get data for this IP through the same 
phone line and the same DSL modem that I presently have, is this right 
right?

I currently have a Red Hat 9-based firewall computer which successfully 
routes data between my first IP address (aaa.aaa.aaa.aaa) and the 
internal home network. It is an old computer that has 2 ethernet cards 
installed on it. Do I need to change my kernel routing table on that 
machine to accomodate the new IP, or do I need a 3rd ethernet card in 
addition to routing table changes and firewall script changes?

Thanks for your advice. I do not often do this sort of thing so I'm 
inexperienced.
