      hello everybody

      i have totall 8 pc's in my office all are running windows xp and 1 pc acts as server not really server just like printer connected to it(means main pc)
      my lan connection like this isp–-->Modem---->switch(8port)----->to 7pc's
      mainpc is direct to modem
      all ips are assigned by isp are DHCP even main pc also
      my main pc has two nic's one is Intel onboard and the other is Realtek external IEEE card
      lan wire connect to Intel onboard

      i have install pfsense in virtualbox

      and i gave network settings like this
      1st adapter bridge to Intel
      2nd adapter bridge to Intel

      all are ok like transparent proxy, content filter and so on

      but earlier i saw one forum that tell dont install linux firewalls on vm's with single adapter

      is this true so why?

      and my question is i want to bridge 1st adapter to intel that Wan and 2nd adapter to Realtek and gives it as Lan to my all Pcs
      and change lan terminal like this ISP---->Modem----->main pc(Intel)---->vm(Pfsense)---->Realtek(2nd adapter)----->Switch(8ports)---->7Pc's

      its workout or not?

      please tell me. ???
