In a command line (terminal), run:

• sudo ifconfig eth0 down
• sudo ifconfig eth0 hw ether 00:11:22:33:44:55
• sudo ifconfig eth0 up

That's sufficient for the current user's session. However, in order for the changes to persist, you must also edit /etc/network/interfaces and create or modify an entry for the interface. For example:

iface eth0 inet dhcp hwaddress ether 08:00:00:00:00:01

You can install macchanger

sudo apt-get install macchanger
macchanger --mac=01:23:45:67:89:AB eth1

In Ubuntu you can clone a Mac address in the network settings.

Click on the network icon in the top bar and select Edit connections. Select your current network and hit Edit. In the Ethernet tab you should see your actual device MAC and a field to enter the MAC you want to clone.
