It took a while for me to get the time to try it, but this did work. They ARE running MAC address auth, but luckily Linux can get right around it with ifconfig. Thanks so much for the help!

They might be using MAC address authentication. Just a thought. If so, and these are 2 separate boxes (or NICs), you can spoof in Linux with 'ifconfig hw ether blah' IIRC.
