I think MS just did us (and themselves) a disservice.

won't necessarily work.  ARP entry will force the arp to use the cached arp
entry, but once the packet reaches it's destination, the NT box should
ignore the packet, as it's ip address does not match the ip address of the
server.  It should respond with a no route to host, or not at all.

What about this methods ? 

- Add an arp entry for any ip and to the above ? 
- Multihomed NT boxes with the other IP ? 
- Add an 'LMhosts' with another name, with IP to the NT box ? 

I guess this is moved the discussion _way_ out of topic, 
but I was just wondering.
