Instructor is a 32 bit instruction set auditor. By sequentially executing every 32 Bit OpCode, one can find instructions that might have adverse effects on operating environments. For example, Instructor was used to find the non-privileged halt instruction.

dsniff is a suite of utilities that are useful for penetration testing. It consists of the following programs: arpredirect intercepts packets from a target host on the LAN intended for another host on the LAN by forging ARP replies. tcpnice slows down specified in-progress TCP connections via "active" traffic shaping (useful for sniffing fast networks). forges tiny TCP window advertisements, and optionally ICMP source quench replies. findgw determines the local gateway of an unknown network via passive sniffing. macof floods the local network with random MAC addresses. tcpkill kills specified in-progress TCP connections. dsniff is a simple password sniffer which handles many protocols. mailsnarf outputs all messages sniffed from SMTP traffic in Berkeley mbox format. webspy sends URLs sniffed from a client to your local Netscape browser for display, updated in real-time.

Ethereal is a GTK+-based network protocol analyzer, or sniffer, that lets you capture and interactively browse the contents of network frames. The goal of the project is to create a commercial-quality analyzer for Unix and to give Ethereal features that are missing from closed-source sniffers.
