Masquerade windows as linux

Hello pen-testers,

I was wondering what are the required changes to the TCP/IP stack to make
nmap report the OS as Linux instead of Windows. A simple example would be to
changing the TTL value from the default windows 128 to 64 through the
registry.

 

Any other accessible ideas?

 

Thanks in advance!
