I've speed read the book Nmap Network Scanning. But I have no clue in which
direction to investigate more. And time is not my friend. Please give me a
thinner direction than "read up on OS detection".

-sgb

1. Have you tried --osscan-guess?
2. Did you find at least one open and one closed TCP port and one closed
UDP port?
3. Did you test debug output to see why Nmap complains about no perfect
match?
4. Maybe your firewall messes with the packets?

I can also see you're using -sT, which is a connect() scan - I would try
-sS just to make sure.
