I myself have never used aliasing, i do however need to spoof my MAC 
sometimes on my laptop to be able to use it on other locations for my work.
However thats beside the point, as far as i can see if you set a different 
IP# then the need for another MAC is (AFAIK) not nessasary.
If ARP's are a problem then setting static arps may be an answer, once more i 
have no experiance with alising, possably Ray may have some advise for you.
