I am using Linux Ubuntu 9.04 as the Host system with 2 network adapter, one for the local network and one for my ISP connection witch goes to the IPCOP in bridging mode.

What I am saying is

My Host have 2 networks.

I have one IpCop running on my host, the too networks are bridge to too interface on my IPCop.

My IPCop is having one interface on my local network and give DNS and DHCP for the local network ths is working ok.

my second interface on my IPCop is having af local administraded MAC address and is connected to my ISP (bridge througe my second interface on my host).

In a way it works just fine, but only for a very short time, I get my IP address as exspected but sudenly I get discconnected.

My ISP is very sensible about change MAC address and if I do I get disconnecetd for about 3 hours.

I think this is why I can't get my IPCop on my Vmware Server host to run smoothy.

Any suggestion to solve this problem?
