Looking for suggestions on what tools are good for performing simple

hping2 <http://www.kyuzz.org/antirez/hping/> by antirez is the best packet
generator that I know about. Change time between packets (-i u1) and you
have a packet flooder.

Preferably something that will compile on Linux or OpenBSD (Win32 is
fine too, as a last resort).


Everywhere except windows ;-)
