If you can get your hands on a PCAP from a previous attack, you could also use something like Bit-Twist which will allow you to manipulate things like the destination IP and also the transmission rate, etc. Pretty useful tool to include in the DDoS simulation toolbox. http://bittwist.sourceforge.net/ Stefan Fouant, CISSP, JNCIE-M/T www.shortestpathfirst.net GPG Key ID: 0xB5E3803D
