This isn't a tool request but rather a suggestion:

For the livecd version (if you have one), make the bootup be stealthy on the
network, i.e. don't immediately yell out on the wire for an IP or hope on
the first open wireless network.

This was an annoying change that was made between BackTrack 2 and BackTrack
3 versions. I understand it causes a lot of needless questions, however!
