I did read someware that they had been able to set up and run Ip-Cop
on som 286 with 14M in ram (but I am not sure it was Ip-Cop 1.4.x,
it could have been 1.3.x or older).

Useing the same kind of NIC's can actually be an advantage, then you
only need to install one driver for the NIC's (think you should use
the best one's for you're intranet).

4 NIC's is the maximum for Ip-Cop to handle, so it will work.

Make sure that you download "how to install..." and "how to admin..."
from http://www.ipcop.org/.
