I've never actually changed a MAC address on SCO but I am aware that patch(es) existed for SCO Openserver 5 generally which would allow this.

The resource where I would start to look is:

http://www.sco.com/ta

Try searching for stuff like "set MAC address"

Good luck.

As far as I know, there is no easy way to change the MAC address of a SCO box. (You do mean the MAC address and not the IP address?)

I think that you can download and install a patch for this.

Perhaps other forum members will know more.
