        Ofir Arkin presented a great paper that he wrote about
fingerprinting windows hosts using ICMP at BlackHat W2K this
year... it should be avalaible on the BlackHat site, or at
http://www.sys-security.com/.

Hi,

What would be the best way to determine what kind of firewall
is running on
a server? Especially one that does not give out any banners.
TCP-fingerprinting is not possible because there are no obvious
open ports.

depends, I'd say. If they pass in (and let out) some ICMP types /
codes, you might be able to fingerprint them on that. I think it
was either Dragos Riu or Clayton Fiske, but one of them wrote an
excellent paper about ICMP fingerprinting.

Cheers, Jan
