MAC ADDRESS SPOOFING :: WINDOWS && LINUX


In the noon time i was chatting with one of my friend while he was at an airport in Paris, during the chat he mentioned that he paid some bucks to access wifi for half an hour.
Well that lead to a spark in my brain. On some basic quick thinking it reminded me about the same situation that i faced while travelling too,
but in my scenario, i only faced two types of policies used by admins at airport that restricted wifi access.

1-- MAC ADDRESS CROSS CHECK.
2-- SUPPLYING USER WITH A TEMP KEY THAT EXPIRES IN A TIME PRE-DEFINED TIME PERIOD.

On collecting info from him it showed that they are surely using the first case.
That just reminded me of something similar i went through while helping a friend in china,
basically there university was using a a client software, that assigns ip address by checking mac add.



so access to other systems except the university registered laptop/pc was restricted, so we used the similar trick for of spoofing the mac address n voila it worked.
so just for explaining that part created to vidz of tools n there how tos for spoofing it on both win and a Linux system.

tools used are :: win : macshift :  link
Linux : macchanger :: link

## on any debian based distro like ubuntu just
## apt-get install macchanger
##if you guys using backtrack or any other security distro i should probably be there in it.


So here are the videos to get you start up fast and easy.
