Hello. My name is Grey, I am a beginner with Alpine Linux. I would like to know how I can change mac address on my PC running alpine linux 3.22 std. In Debian, I open the terminal and type "sudo crontab -e", I go to the bottom of the script and I add "@reboot macchanger -r wlan0", I save it, and when I reboot my PC, it changes mac address automatically. How can I do it in Alpine? Thank you very much for your kind help. Grey | Hello. My name is Grey, I am a beginner with Alpine Linux.
