Certainly it's possible with OS/2 (I'm not sure why Joachim said that
it's only possible on the newer TCP/IP stack, since I once did this long
before v4.1) since I've had a single Ethernet card handling both a
Class-A[1] and a Class-C address.

Cannot say the same for certain about Win2K, although I have had one card
in an NT4 box handling both 192.168.0.0/16 and also 193.163.243.0/22;
since Win2K is essentially NT5, I don't see why that might have changed.
(Under NT4, one adds such aliases through the "Advanced Options" on the
NIC's properties page.)

[1] And yes, I *do* know that these classes haven't existed since the
advent of CIDR a decade ago :-)
