>>> Is there a way to determine what OS/server software is on the other end? <<< The easiest and only way I know to do that is to type this: type: telnet www.techweb.com 80 output: {a telnet session will open and wait for input} type: GET / output: {a bunch of ugly HTML} At the top it usually says what server is running, however I think a lot of sites turned this off for security reasons. Try www.Nasdaq.com for example. They use IIS. Congratulations, you are a web browser. P.S. Try to just telnet to techweb. They have a nasty message for you. My guess is that it is Unix.
