      first network segment <----->
                                                  PFSENSE  <------> web server
      second network segment <----->

      can I do this topology with one ore two nic's on web server - lan's side?

          There are two networks. Users from both networks need to have access to one local web & ftp server… Also I would like to put firewall between users and server...

          My questions is: If I use pfsense to achieve this... would I need 2 networks adapter for those two networks and 1 network adapter for connecting to server... or I need some other configuration?

          THANKS...

            if you have managed switches, which is able to handle vlans(IEEE802.1Q tagging) then you can use 2 interfaces. another interface has to have two vlans.
            but it's not end of the world if you don't have that kind of possibility, then you can use 3 interfaces.
