   Does your 'wintel' machine have an address on that network, or an interface   
   route to it through the correct interface?

   I'm not sure why you need a static ARP entry.  If your host has an address in   
   the correct network and a route to it, ARP will just happen in the background.   
   Actually, even just a static route would do, provided you didn't expect to get   
   any traffic back.
