Yes and no. ;-) It's easy with most PC based NIC's and drivers. Some OS's and features actually require it, so it's built into most NIC chipsets and drivers. Of course, once the frame has traversed a router, the original source MAC address is gone, so it's usually irrelevant unless your target is on the same subnet as you. JMH "Bobby, Paul" wrote:
Is it possible to spoof this address also? Would someone have to write a custom ethernet driver? Paul Bobby ----------------- <dream> Got Root? </dream>
