Yep, can be done. I have wired/wireless right now. The simplest and easiest
way to do it is bridging either by external bridge or on the XP machine
controlling all, adding a network bridge there but that means all machines
have to be auto assigned IPs.

If the networked machines aren't supposed to contact each other wireless to
wi-fi it is even easier.

So how do you intend to set them up? So that they can all contact each other
and internet as well?
