Erm - I think that three different things are being confused here.

The following versions of Windows will allow multiple network cards
to be configured on a single hsot, and allow IP packets generated on
the PC to be routed to the correct card:

- 3.11 for Workgroups using MS TCP/IP but not Trumpet WinSock
- 95/98/98SE (and therefore, I assume ME)
- NT 3.51/4
- 2000

The following versions of Windows will allow IP to be NAT routed
between a network card (or cards) and a TA using Internet Connection
Sharing.

- 98SE (and therefore, I assume ME) Note that 98 _doesn't_ until SE
- 2000

The following versions of Windows will allow full IP routing between
two network cards so packets generated by remote hosts on one network
can use the server as an IP router to push them onto the other.

- NT 3.51/4
- 2000

Hope this helps...
