Alot of computers now have built in network card.
Is there a way to add or change the MAC address right on the computer form instead of going to Internal Devices and Network Interface.

I don't speak about Gentle Mac.., I speak about GLPI !
"Is there a way to add or change the MAC address right on the computer form instead of going to Internal Devices and Network Interface." -> In GLPI

Well, this is more than sad, it makes for example the datainjection-plugin obsolete for importing csv data from a computer inventory.
I am right now talking of switching towards GLPI with an initial amount of 3500 desktops and 2000 laptops in the inventory.

Excellent, lets make threats towards the developers who develop for free!
What's this "Internal Devices and Network Interface" thing anyway. I change each computer's mac address in the components section, and don't see anything wrong with it. Even if it is built in, what if you change the motherboard? It wouldn't be the same mac address, so you'd want to change it.
I don't understand the original question.
Now using 0.78.1 on CentOS.

Even an integrated network card is a 'component'. The Computer itself does not have a MAC address, the network components do. A computer can have several MAC addresses, a network component can only have one. That is why it is set up this way.
Also, I have a weird feeling that not everyone posting in this thread is a different person....

It is...
At least me wasn't the original poster...
I was just asking for a easy way to actually import existing data to glpi without writing my own scripts to insert that data to the right tables...
In fact, i don't care if the mac belongs to my computer or not, i just don't want to have to first import all my inventory and afterwards import mac adresses and connect them to about 3500 machines by hand.
I just can't find a proper way to do this with the file injection plugin which is by the way deprecated for newer glpi versions!?
