Hot Diggety! On a dark and stormy night, Geoff White was rumored to have said...
      Where can I find a list of MAC (ethernet) address assignments.
      i.e. blocks of addresses were assigned to various companies.
      for example 8:0:20:xx:xx:xx is most likely a Sun machine
        00:c0:7b:xx:xx:xx is some form of ascend router.

      I'm trying to track down someone who is using an IP address that
      they should not be using and all I have is their MAC address
      (00:20:af:f2:2c:79)

It's been useful for me on more than one occasion.

You enter it as: 00-20-af in the search field.

Incidentially, 00:20:af is a 3com device. Good luck!
