You cannot change the hardware address of your interface card
through
software. It is hardwired into your card's ROM.
well you can on most cards. they have a serial eeprom and sometimes some dos utilities to change the hardware (mac) address. Without the utilities you have to wire up the eeprom and use one of several tools available on GNU/Linux. Check up freshmeat for ponyprog (i think).
