Anyone out there familiar with a tool that would allow one to sniff packets
off the wire and forward them to a remote host after modification? Please no
mentions of hping2, sing, and NEMESIS. I am not looking for a packet
crafting tool, rather, one that lets me forward captured packets. Last I
recall, I think the newer versions of IRIS support this functionality but am
looking for something else.

   I think that you should/could check out ettercap; it's a powerful 
   customizable sniffer; it can perform ARP poisoning, plug in [1] and 
   so on (which allow you packet mangling if you want, as well as blind 
   forwarding).

   http://ettercap.sf.net to get more info.

[1]: the new 0.6.2 version supports a new plug in engine which defines
hook point so you can do whatever (almost) you want on the packet just
sniffed.
