Re: [PEN-TEST] Arp Spoofing under WinNT 4.0

On unix there are many tools, but on WinNT 4.0 with WinPcap there are
some tools for "arp spoofing" ?

the obvious suggestion is to use your UN*X laptop/other device to flood
the switch or spoof (via a hub attached to your switched port) the MAC
addr you wish to impersonate.

How could this possibly work?  My understanding is that he's remote, not
physically local.  The MAC addresses of any packets sent will, if they even
get there at all, be replaced at each and every hop along the way there...
