Are you using hardware acks? If so, there might not be a way to do
this. If you are using software acks, you will need to hack the radio
stack so that the nodes send acks for some unicast packets and not for
others. In general, TinyOS protocols are not designed to cleanly
support duplicate node id's in a network.
