3.1 to work on a Network w/ 9x, Me, 2K?

Comment:

I am geting a old 386 that has Windows 3.1 on it. My current network has machines running Win 9x / Win Me / Win NT / Win 2000 all installed and file sharing, printer sharing and internet sharing. I also have modems on the network so for some laptops that are running 9x Machines they access the network via telephone modem connection. How can I setup the 3.1 to access the network? What about TCP/IP? Also, can I insert a Network Card to work in 3.1? I have no idea, how I can setup a 3.1 on this network... Thanx
