Well, I think that functionality should be built into Nmap allowing it to be
utilized for network stress testing upon demand. I mean its a great network
tool and you can already do many cool things with it, but if network stress
testing such as SYN/UDP Flooding capabilities are built it, it would make
the ULTIMATE network tool.
Netcat's already integrated, so why not a tool called Nflood?

According to an old interview I read, Fyodor actually wrote a tool that did similar called ndos.

He's declined to make it public for relatively obvious reasons...
