One Polysrv--many Polygraph Clients---is it possible ?

Hi folks,

 I want to simulate client requests coming from different source IP
addresses(when actually
they come from a client process running a single homed host only) Could
we simulate client requests from
a Polyclt in such a way so as to make it appear that the different
client requests come from different source
IP addresses?( my idea is to first use ifconfig command to create
multiple aliases for the IP address of the
client's machine and then bind the sockets to different IP addresses
[using the bind() call ] ).If this is not
possible,then I would have to use multiple clients to communicate with
one server.Is that
OK?. I request for your comments--since I am not very comfortable with
multithreaded code as the one
of Polygraph?

Thanks for your time,
Aditya
