Flat towing and transmission question

If I "flat tow" my scout, I am told that I need to disconnect the drive shaft. Question: If I put the transfer case in neutral and the transmission in neutral or park, won't that suffice re: not disconnecting the drive shaft?
I am thinking there are bearings in the transfer case that won't get lubed/wet if the driveshaft isn't connected.

I've seen scouts towed with the driveshaft connected, and some not connected.
