changing identification

(1/2) > >>

Master of Reality:
How would i go about trying to change what Linux identifies itself as?

voidmain:
What the hell you talking about m0r?  Do you mean change the info in /etc/issue and what the "uname" command returns?  Or are you talking about what Apache says it's running on?  There's about a million things that could mean.

Master of Reality:
I think i want to change what you will get if you do an NMAP OS scan on my computer. How do i change what apache says it runs on too?

voidmain:
1) hack TCP/IP in the kernel so it has the fingerprint of another OS.  Good luck. Yeah right.

2) hack the Apache source and recompile. Much easier task.

Master of Reality:
my hacking skills are mostly limited to what i can do with a hatchet. So maybe i will work on my weapon of mass destruction instead.
