sebus Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 In Applescript create an application: do shell script "ifconfig en0 lladdr xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx" password "xxx" with administrator privileges Put the created app somewhere & then add it to My Startup Items (System Preferences, accounts/ your account/ startup items) It works for me, probably not the only way to get the issue sorted. In System Preferences/Network the address will still show as 00:00 but ifconfig reports it just right Seb Also when you make something work, it is good idea to answer your own question (how you did it), as it might help some other soul searching for same answer!
