What steps can be used to prevent "OS Banner Grabbing" by the client? Also, what is the best method or "attack" to get to a banner on MS and non MS Operating Systems?


Michael,

It depends on the service you want to protect. Just type "change <service_name> banner on <os_name>" in google. With a simple telnet client you can grab almost all banners, but netcat is the most recommended tool for this kind of job.

regards,
Sami.
