Lance Spitzner submits If there's any way you could could contribute, I'd really appreciate this. I set up a very simple visit-to-fingerprint page to gather p0f signatures for the new version (which is getting more and more interesting, I never expected so much feedback).

I mostly look for more obscure systems, err, SCO, MacOS, AIX, HPUX, IRIX and whatnot, more Solaris, older Windows, also some more OpenBSD and NetBSD, etc. I have w2k/xp/linux 2.2-2.6 and most freebsd covered already.

I don't want to generate a third post to MLs, but I'd appreciate if you could forward it around to whoever you know who runs some of the boxes mentioned.
