It's relatively trivial to run 2 or 3 NICs in one machine.  Win-95 OSR-1 is
very lame (but workable) for this, OSR-2 is better and Win-98, better yet.
There are also MS Kernel and Winsock upgrades that you should apply to Win-95. 
   
You need to know how to sort out your network protocols -- i.e. NetBEUI,
TCP/IP, PCX, etc.  If you're using TCP/IP, you may need to delete and
re-install the protocols since a previous binding can cause conflicts.  You
will also need to know how to assign valid IP addresses and SubNet addresses
if using TCP/IP and not using Dynamic addressing.
    
There are many variables and getting everything sorted out and applied in
proper sequence may drive you batty before you achieve what you want.  If
initial attempts don't work out, might be best to hire a qualified
networking geek to save yourself a lot of frustration.
