gateway for separate networks

[Bob Ababurko]

I should have been more descriptive in describing what I need.  I have two 
networks  that are routed to me via a serial connection, namely a T1.  I 
have just installed a new router and it has two ethernet ports that will 
route to the two different networks.  What I want to do is have a single 
machine have two routes to the Internet, but each NIC going through its 
respective network...one is a /24 and the other a /28.  So, i would think 
that this would require that "fancier setup", due to the fact that I want 
traffic going out each nic to go through its networks gateway.  Now, what 
is this fancier setup?
