I would like Kali Linux to change the MAC addresses of both my network interfaces (eth0 and wlan0) on startup to randomly generated ones. How would I go about doing this?

Arminius over 6 yearsI'd upvote if you also include content (from the links) in your answer. Currently it's just plain references.

Joe over 6 yearsYeah sorry I didn't have the time to type it all out but I wanted to provide a quick answer. I did revise the links 3x to provide the best possible ones. And 2 of them have really well documented solutions. No point re-inventing the wheel

Joe over 6 yearsAlso I'm pretty sure when you install kali now there will be a pop up window that asks if you want macchanger to do this on boot
