Subject: Break-in discovery and forensics tools

I've been tasked with putting together a CD of tools that can be used
for analysis of hacked machines.  These would be both tools that can
determine if a program is trojaned or a file has been altered as well as
tools that could be used to save forensics data for possible
prosecution.

Other than Dan and Wietse's TCT, what tools do you think should be
included?

I envision this CD as having several directories, each one being for a
particular platform (Windows, RedHat, Solaris, HP-UX, etc.).  In those
directories would be versions of TCT compiled for that platform and
utilities such as ls, ps, file, ifconfig, strings, etc.  Possibly also a
file with MD5 checksums for OS files that are commonly altered.

If you were starting from a blank slate, what would you think are the
must have tools for this CD?  How would you set it up?
