You can use fake for more than one IP address as well - in fact I'm using it 
to takover 2 NICs of my squid server if that one should fail.
Currently I have a simple script which periodically tests the reachability of 
the squid port and in case of failure I do something like

fake <first NIC's IP-Address> &
fake <second NIC's IP-Address> &

works pretty good and has saved me from hassles quite a few times! It's no 
perfect solution and you probably should go for Heartbeat if you are more 
serious - but hey, it's simple and works fine for me :)

Regards,
