I have this, and I've been using it with Query Analyzer to try
to determine why SQL 2000 is so... problematic.   So far, I've
also identified some previously unknown fields in the TDS 7.0+
login packet.  (Still don't know why SQL2K likes to drop the
connection so often.)

I'll add this to CVS over the weekend.  How about in a new "tools"
directory?
