Hello All:

Is there a PRACTICAL solution from PRODUCTION
environments that can be used to block OS detection
from tools like NMAP? I googled and read some notes
but couldn't find a real world solution to blocking
Windows & Linux OS detection.

I'm quite sure I'll get the right inputs here.

Thank you.

The folks over at Syn Ack labs had/have (haven't followed it in a
while) an interesting project called Packet Purgatory. When I looked
at it a few years ago it was more proof of concept and not
particularly scalable. Try http://www.synacklabs.net/projects/packetp/

Hope this helps.
