    Hello Everyone,

    I need to know if it's possable to change the network card's mac address on a
    FreeBSD 4.10 based machine. This machine is a firewall on a cable company's
    network and they use the mac address for billing etc. (The user's system has
    a subnet of ip's).

    The network card is playing up and I need to change it but keep the old cards
    hardware ethernet address: ie: ether 01:50:08:c1:f9:a1
