Every OS have a fingerprint not a banner. Services have banners. Nmap have a database of OS fingerprints and can tell you what type of OS is on the target. But there are OS that return similar responses, so telling the difference between them is difficult. Also there is a project at http://ippersonality.sourceforge.net/ that can modify the behaviour of the OS. So 'attacking' the OS fingerprint is not a straight line and not always return a good result.

What steps can be used to prevent "OS Banner Grabbing" by the client? Also, what is the best method or "attack" to get to a banner on MS and non MS Operating Systems?
