I am pleased to announce the immediate availability of the current
development code of Xprobe2.

Xprobe2 is an active operating system fingerprinting tool with a
different approach to operating system fingerprinting. Xprobe2 rely on
fuzzy signature matching, probabilistic guesses, multiple matches
simultaneously, and a signature database.

The tool's release is accompanied by a white paper explaining our fuzzy
approach to operating system fingerprinting and the various problems
facing other remote active operating system fingerprinting tools
available today, which we have tried to remedy.

The current development code is available from:

The White Paper is available from:
