    > Is there any other method to change the OS identification?

    This page has a nice little summary of multiple methods & software
    though it's a year old:
    http://www.cydem.org.ua/pars.php?conf=1&lnk=nmap_defeating

    Handy little program listed called iplog which, as the document says:
    "...has an option (-z) that allows to fool Nmap queries, and, although
    we can behave as other OS, we can completely fool Nmap when guessing
    remotely our OS". That sounds kinda handy since you could avoid having
    to load kernel modules or patch your source & recompile. Mind you I
    haven't tried any of these.

    Perhaps there is a live-CD linux distro already patched up with some of
    the more hardcore stuff that you could try out... good live-CD list
    here (got the link off slashdot this morning):
