Hi Axel,

I *must* will have been changed a ethernet mac to have a connection to internet 
unfortunately :-(
(the f... ISP has written other mac of my a previous computer which is *valid* 
ethernet address)
I think it is needed to have an additional option in a ifconfig which it will 
given us a *possibility*
 to change a physical address. 
Now I am going to read and learn more about net stack and my via-rhine net 
driver implementation.

Regards,
Pawel
