The appropriate way to perform this is either:
Set the new hwaddr in the card's filter list (most ethernet cards have a
hardware packet filter, which filters ethernet frames based upon
the hwaddr)
Configure the card to do true MAC masquerading. This is possible on a number
of cards, however I believe the list is more limited than the one
above. Intel EEPro 10/100's will do MAC masquerading.
