MAC address spoofing - conflict?

Hi, Let's say you're wardriving, and you find an open network which has MAC address filtering enabled. There is one active client on the network. You insert BackTrack, start Kismet and find out the client's MAC address. Then, you change your MAC address to mimic the client's, and connect to the network. What happens? Do you kick the other client off, or do both clients conflict with each other because their MAC addresses are the same? Or does something else happen? I'm sorry I can't check this at the moment, but I do not have a wireless network to test it on. Thanks in advance, Flail ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This List Sponsored by: Cenzic Concerned about Web Application Security?
