Inside /usr/include/linux/netdevice.h, there is a #define for MAX_ADDR_LEN which is currently set to a value of "7" in 2.4. I am working on an implementation where the hardware address of the media needs be larger than 7 bytes. What is the process by which I would have to go through to get this value changed to something larger than 7 bytes, if I so desired ? Thanks, Joe Golio
