fooling nmap

[vxp]

Hi,

I'm wondering if it'd be a good idea / worth it to modify the kernel a bit
and add a few sysctl switches so the user would be able to choose what OS
he wants the box to appear as, to a nmap scan ?

It'd require, obviously, a few modifications to the networking code.
Please elaborate on why you don't think its a good idea, if thats the
case.. and feel free to give any comments/suggestions if you think it is a
good idea as well. =)
