Hi all
 
Strange request I guess, but having a rather nary problem. Changed a
motherboard in a HPs700 B-class workstation and could not read the
LanAddress off the EEPROM (label or otherwise). Need to process a
lanaddress from the SPUID (dec or hex) to use the HP ss_config utility
to change lanaddress.
 
Anyone in the ether out there working on HP's know the algorithm HP's
use to work out the mac from the SPUID (Software ID) of the Processor?
My current setup (which is wrong) SPUID dec = 2002372255
                                                  SPUID hex = 0x7759c69f
                                                  LanAddress =
0060b0-f92342
 
Should be SPUID dec = 2002392735
                SPUID hex = 0x775a169f
                lanaddress = Thats what I need!!!!!

Try lan address of 0060b0-f92842
