Multiple Interfaces? (Documentation unclear.) #27

Closed DiagonalArg closed 8 years ago

DiagonalArg commented 8 years ago

In the file /etc/default/macchanger the variable ENABLE_INTERFACES is set to the interface that we want randomized on startup. If there are more than one interface, it is not clear if we should be providing a space or comma separated list, or something else. You might indicate in the man page if:

macchanger [options] device[ device device ...]

or

macchanger [options] device[, device, device...]

works, or something else.

The file /etc/default/macchanger is not something supported by upstream macchanger, but is an extension added in distros packaging macchanger. I see the file in Debian packages, so it's likely in Debian derivates too.

Additionally, the support for ENABLE_INTERFACES is apparently currently not implemented:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=780165

If you're using Debian-based distor, the above Debian bug is where to follow-up further. For other distros, you should raise this in distribution bug tracker.
