Windows 2000 server domain controller

Hi, I have a windows 2000 server domain controller with 10 pc connected to it, I have a internet service that is connected via ethernet card, so one pc has two NICs, one for the internal network and one for the internet connection, but now I would like to share the internet with four pc on the network, how can I do this using the domain controller as a router using the same wires?.

I'm a little confused but if one pc is acting like a router and you want to connect more computers to it, you will need more nic's in that router/computer. Might be better just to buy a 12 port router/switch.

No I don`t have a router pc, the connection isn`t shared, but I would like to use the service of routing that has windows 2000 server because I don`t have the money to buy a router, I and want to learn how to do it using my actual network wich is a Domain with DHCP and DNS.

Here some network configs in picture http://www.homenethelp.com/ics/ics-install-arch.asp
I'm not confused I also have comp with two nic one for LAN(home network) one for cable internet and I'm sharing existing internet connection with my other computer.
Everythig is clear but only way to share that internet connection with 4 computers is to buy router or a swich.You can connect two of them with crossower cable but to connect 4 imposible!!!
Do a bit research go on ebay I have bought 4 port swich for $19 something with delivery one year a go!!!
And then you can learn using your DHCP and DNS and active directory!!!

The problem is that this is not a home network nor a workgroup, this is a Domain with an active directory, DHCP and DNS server (Domain controller) so I have to do this respecting this, the server ip address is 192.168.0.1 the DHCP scope is 192.168.0.10-192.168.0.244.

Yes and when you connect 4 computers to a domain with swich in your network on workstations just use automatic IP assigning and that's it,you'll get addresses for yours workstations from your scope!!!
If you would like to share Internet connection on server I think that you will have to create Group Policy (for those 4 computers and give them access to a internet).
