Hi all,
I'm trying to assign a mac address to lo0 (or a virtual one to tu0) but
I can't figure out the syntax.
If it is impossible to assign an additional address to either tu0 or lo0
I would not be adverse to creating a virtual interface and assigning it
an ip address, man adress, and an entry in /etc/hosts.
