You may be trying to do this the hard way. Instead of trying to tie the same IP
to both NICs, which presents configuration challenges at the best of times, just
have the name be the same and it becomes a multi-homed node. That's pretty well
handled by almost everything without wizard level config, if you run your own
DNS you have two A records for the name, and reverse DNS both IPs resolve back
to the same name.
This was my solution, and I don't recall any issues, forward and reverse DNS
lookups, IP and name assign in DHCP.
I don't know if this will solve your problem, it's quite simple, I've also done
complex things which ran through a VPN always, on the cable, on the wifi, and
from the outside when I'm on the road.
