RE: One computer two different networks

["David Gillett" <gillettdavid () fhda edu>]

  Install a VPN server that accepts clients from the secured network,
and allows them to the outside.  Make sure "split tunnelling" is disabled.
So when a client machine fires up the VPN client software and connects
to the Internet, they can no longer talk to resources on the secure 
network until they drop it again.
