some years ago an italian wrote a tool called HEAT, if i'm not wrong.
but I cannot find it a the moment...
maybe it has simply disappeared since ebtables already offers what you need:
(from http://ebtables.sourceforge.net/documentation.html)
<<MAC NAT: ability to alter the MAC Ethernet source and destination
address. This can be useful in some very strange setups (a real-life
example is available).>>
btw, I think that having a linux box, you'd better use it as a layer 3
router, rather than a layer 2 bridge... you can do much more in that
case and... don't forget it, you will appear with more ip addresses than
you should.
