You might want to check out honeyd[1]. It does what you're looking for. 
Also, you should drop other irregular TCP flag combinations, not just
syn/fin. Hope That Helps.

Cheers!

Subject: Faking OS detection


I wonder how i can emulate some OS when somebody scans my box with
nmap -O or something else.
Im using FreeBSD on my servers, and currently i block all OS guessing
by setting
options TCP_DROP_SYNFIN in my kernel.

But is it possible to modify TCP/IP stack so it will emulate win2k or
linux or something else?

Thanx
