(I've heard that you can override the MAC address for some cards under Linux, maybe under OS/2, and then you could set the MAC addresses to the same? Addison
Post #7,057 by Andrew Grygus 8/29/01 4:42:22 AM Reply	Since all network addressing . . . . . for bridging, routing and other functions is actually done by MAC address, having several cards with the same address would probably make quite a mess of things. [link\|http://www.aaxnet.com\|AAx]

He said that when he unplugged one from the CM, and plugged another in, that the CM didn't work. Which would indicate they're not online at the same time, and therefore irrelevant to the MAC address. If they're on a network together, whole new ball game. Addison
