[ale] Patch vs. crossover cables

[trey at fastmail.fm (Trey Sizemore)]

I've got a box with 3 NICs I'm going to setup as a firewall.  One NIC
connected to my DSL modem, one NIC for my internal network, and one for
a DMZ.  The DMZ and internal networks will have more than one PC on
them, so I have a couple of hubs.

My question is, given this architecture (with no PCs directly connected
to one another, only to hubs) is there any need for a crossover cable,
or will all cables needed be standard patch cables?
