NT won't let you assign the same IP address to multiple NICs...to do so, you
may want to look at Balance Suite for Windows NT from NSI Software at
http://www.nsisw.com.

Balance Suite is a software driver that lets you combine multiple physical
NICs into a single "Virtual Adapter" (i.e. a single IP address) with
increased bandwidth and fault tolerance.  The concept is like RAID for NICs.

Balance Suite has one several awards and is hard to beat with a retail price
of $395 per server.  You can find white papers, FAQs, reviews and download
live evaluation software from our web site.
