Hi all, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
I was wondering how I could hide my uptime and OS for portscans. If |
| 4 |
someone scans my server (for example using Nmap), he can see what OS I am |
| 5 |
running and what the uptime of the box is. Does anyone know which firewall |
| 6 |
rule I need to prevent this? And how does Nmap collect this information? |
| 7 |
Is it related to what services there are running on the server? |

The software said "Microsoft Windows 95 or better", so I tried *nix! |
