Sounds like what LVS (Linux Virtual Server) ldirectord does in "DR" setup - host "A" publishes virtual IP, receives packets from the world, redirects them at the ethernet-level to host B (which is on the same ethernet segment) which then generates IP packets with the virtual IP as the source address and the initial client as the destination - allowing host B to send the reply directly to the client through its router without bothering the ldirectord.
Is this what you are trying to achieve?
um, about 3 weeks ago, when this discussion was active, the original poster stated that Servers A and B were... "two different machines on different public networks."
I think that precludes a direct Ethernet connection.
