Bill suggested on cvs-all that we use the ifconfig ether option as a workaround. What I did is create a shell script to readd my MAC address at boot time to the configuration such as topaz# cd /usr/local/etc/rc.d topaz# cat setether.sh #! /bin/sh ifconfig sis0 ether 00:d0:0a:df:58:6e You K7S5A manual has your ethernet address on the cover. It is also on the top of the mb where you plug in the rj-45 connector.
