Information for siphon-0.666: Comment: Passive host OS identifier using characteristics of sniffed traffic Description: Siphon is a passive OS fingerprinter which sniffs network traffic passing the local machine and uses characteristics of the TCP stream to identify the operating system running on the endpoints. In contrast to active fingerprinters like nmap and queso, no additional connections need to be made to the target system in order to fingerprint it. WWW: http://www.subterrain.net/projects/siphon/
