Awesome, thanks again! The Live CD works very well, the only thing I had
to add is sudo apt-get install cifs-utils, before being able to access
our samba shares. Plus I didn't find an obvious way of changing the
keyboard layout, so we installed the needed layout and uninstalled the
standard one. I now saw in the documentation that there should be an
obvious way, just wasn't obvious enough for us.
Cheers

Sorry, I got confused, you are absolutely right, only the MAC address is
relevant for the intranet and that one does not change. I think I also got
confused about the requirement to reboot when trying out the Ubuntu Live CD.
I thought it was possible to try without rebooting, but I can't find any
evidence for that now.
OK. If you try the live and have any comment or request, do not hesitate
to send feedback !
By the way, note that you can always fake your MAC address as follows:
sudo ifconfig eth0 hw ether 00:11:22:33:44:55
or (wifi)
sudo ifconfig wlan0 hw ether 00:11:22:33:44:55
(the network manager also has options for that).
Ciao,

Wow, thank you! Is it required to boot into the live image, or could one
also run it within windows, similar to the Ubuntu live usb sticks? The
problem with booting into the live image is that one would probably lose
intranet connectivity.
I do not know about ubuntu live options to run within windows (i would be
happy to get a link and, if possible, provide a similar thing in further
versions). What i could say is that you can run it from qemu and probably
other hypervisors (i do it sometimes for testing purposes), but i do not
see the benefit in a daily use since you might lose performances.
What do you mean by intranet connectivity ? If you boot from the live USB,
you get tons of wifi drivers and a network manager with all available
plugins, including various VPN (i added those after a workshop in Iran).
Ciao,

An alternative that has proven to work pretty well in warious workshops is
the live USB (which is still maintained an in heavy development):
