So...

ntlvictim. Thanks for that reference, I'll have a look in a minute.

Mark. Now, maybe progress.
On the iMac, with the ethernet disconnected from the modem, I have just entered the modified sudo string, and, BEARING IN MIND THAT I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M LOOKING AT OR FOR!, in the data that's come back, under en0:, the 'ether' line does now read just the same as the hex string I just put in.

So, if that means that the iMac now has the same address as the G3, will this fool the modem?

Only way to find out is to replug and try it, so I'll be back in a few minutes.
