Product Description:

Application to spoof your Ethernet or Airport mac address. It will also generate a random address for you. Admin password required to change mac addresses. Choice of vendor for random generation. Just copy to your applications folder to install. Limitations -does not work with Mac Pro airport Released under GPL. The scripts used to get and set the mac address, for both the Airport and Ethernet interfaces, were modified from one written by Fouad Sethna. Request of user admin password is now handled more securely by the operating system, rather the program itself. This is in response to user feedback that it looked suspicious otherwise. Compatibility with Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard.

What's new in this version:

Upgraded the code base extensively, so that the information gathering is more resilient to system updates, which has previously proved problematic.

ChangeMAC CommentaryReason for java errors - Version: 1.5.1, 2/5/2008 12:00AM PST

I think that I found the reason for the java errors given before. If you look at the getAirport and getEthernet scripts in the Contents/Resources folder under ChangeMac.app (the sources aren't current), they grep for using the -A25 option. For my computer with configured proxys, the MAC address lines are well beyond 25 lines down. If I used vi to change the scripts to look further in to the information structure, then ChangeMac would launch.

I also had to change setAirport because the 10.5.1 version of the airport command does not have the --mac option. I then had to change setA to call setAirport directly without using osascript.
