  # ipfw add fwd 2.2.2.2 from 1.1.1.1 to any 100 out

Should do it, provided,

  1) 2.2.2.2 is local to 1.1.1.1

  2) This is _really_ what you want to do. You do realize that the
  fwd'ed packet is NOT modified. Machine B will receive a datagram
  without the destination address changed in any way (if 1.1.1.1 was
  sending a datagram to 3.3.3.3, port 100, Machine B will receive a
  datagram with a destination address of 3.3.3.3, port 100).

As I think I said before, you probably actually want to do NAT of some
sort.
