The dsniff package includes 2 tools called tcpnice(8) and tcpkill(8) -
what nice(1) and kill(1) do to processes, these do to TCP connections.
They use the same host and port rules as tcpdump(1), so you probably
already know how to specify only certain TCP connections to be reniced
or torn down.
You might also want to look at Hogwash, a packet laundry tool which
uses the Snort engine and sits on top of the network driver - no IP
stack required.
