I assume you mean that 80 is the first byte, not 80x.
My first byte is 72 on a Sparc20 and my Ethernet address starts
8:0, so I guess that in your case the 80 of hostid and 8:0 of the
ethernet address is just coincidence.

My last six characters are the same on both, so I guess that's
universal on Sun equipment.

Can anyone add more enlightenment?

TIA
