Multiple Networks with Vista?

Lets say I've got 4 machines (2x Vista, 1x XP, and 1x SLES) on my desk, each with dual 1gb nics. 1 nic from each machine is connected to a 10/100 network with a domain, and 1 nic from each machine is connected to a 4 port 10/100/1000 netgear switch.

Lets say I need to copy 20GB worth of data between the vista boxes -- how do I get them to use the 1GB switch by default instead of using the slower connection over the domain?

I would like to do this without maping network drives using the private IP address, as that would be cheating :D
 
I would suggest using the hosts file
/etc/hosts for linux
{Windows directory}/system32/drivers/etc/hosts for windows (plain text file you can use notepad)
Put the IP that's on the gig-E network and then a name to associate with, then use that specific name to mount the drive.
