Changing MAC adress
Hello
I'm a begginer with Linux. I just grabbed a live distribution of Knoppix and i'd like to know how can I change my MAC adress or if it is possible.
I tried
Code:
ifconfig eth0 hw ether 00:05:11:17:25:34
but it gives me
SIOCSIFHWADDR Op not permitted
When type i get the "SIOCSIFFLAGS Permission denied" message.

"SIOCSIFFLAGS Permission denied"
This usually means that it is only permitted if you are a root (adminitstrator) user. So I use sudo to run administrative commands.
Code:
sudo ifconfig eth down
sudo ifconfig eth0 hw ether 00:05:11:17:25:34
sudo ifconfig eth0 up
