A friend and I are writing a tool to do this right now; it's called  
netdiff, and if you'd like to be part of the test group, drop me an  
email. We're still coding it but should have something relatively  
shortly.

The focus of our tool is finding both changed hosts *and* changed  
ports -- so if you have new systems pop up it'll show you, and if you  
have new ports pop up on existing systems, it'll show you those as well.
