a man in the middle is not neccessary, you sniff the packets, spoof your ip
and or mac, then dos the other box you are spoofing. there is a *nix tool
that will do an arp flood, turning all switches into a hub, so you do not
need to be on the same subnet either. search for it on freshmeat.net

Did you mean MAC Flooding instead of Arp Flooding? This will allow you to DoS switches and they usually revert to a hub-like mode. If so you can use dsniff's macof to do just this.
