Which address do you mean, the MAC address of the ethernet hardware or a
different DECnet address? The MAC address is burned into the hardware and
only gets changed when the machine is in a cluster IIRC, and changing the
DECnet address is different from Phase IV DECnet to DECnet/OSI.

If you can give us some more information it'll help.
