An IP packet has the MAC of the origin network device. But you can change the IP address of a device, so I think that your question doesn't have sense. --- Michaël Hooreman Keyware Transaction and Processing Rue Laid Burniad, 4 1348 - Louvain-La-Neuve Belgium Tel : +32 (0)10 48 01 21 Fax : +32 (0)10 45 77 67 mhooreman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
