Hunt is a program for intruding into a connection, watching it and resetting it. It was inpired by products like Juggernaut or T-sight but has several features which can not be found in these products. Note that hunt is operating on Ethernet and is best used for connections which can be watched through it. However, it is possible to do something even for hosts on another segments.
