See the IFOPTS option in network-profile? You can specify the MAC address in it. Just like this: # Interface Settings (use IFOPTS="dhcp" for DHCP) IFOPTS="hw ether 00:E0:4C:4C:F7:6E 172.18.60.55 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 172.18.60.255" GATEWAY=172.18.60.1 It's just an example above. I use this setting at home so I can ensure that it works. You can change the setting by yourself, only keeping the "hw ether" setting first. P.S. Sorry for my english, too. :( _______________________________________________ arch mailing list arch@archlinux.org http://www.archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/arch
