Re: hostname.cdce0 not modifying MAC

OpenBSD doesn't auto-connect on insert like that. You must configure
this yourself. Look at hotplugd(8) manpage.

This is a good thing, btw. Look up poisontap for details.

| Because of this (when plug out/in) the MAC address isn't updated for the cdce0 device, and thus the pppoe0 doesn't connects, because my ISP has MAC filtering and only allowed the one in the hostname.cdce0 file.
