Yes, such attack re-map port<->mac pair in "plain" switches.
Static arp entries are _static_ (unchangable) for Linux.
For Windows, Windows XP is first MS system that treat static as real 
static - in previous versions "static" means that is times-out not so 
often (but could be changed)
For other OSes? dunno.
