RE: [Ethereal-users] Replay Capture Files ?

["McNutt, Justin M." <McNuttJ@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You might pass this idea on to Fyodor (author of nmap).  Since nmap is
capable of creating its own arbitrary packets, Fyodor may be able to help
you write a program that accepts libpcap format in and just spews packets
out.

Such a program would have to run as root, of course...
