Question #: 86
Topic #: 3
[All CPEH-001 Questions]

You have initiated an active operating system fingerprinting attempt with nmap against a target system:

What operating system is the target host running based on the open ports shown above?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Canaries or canary words are known values that are placed between a buffer and control data on the stack to monitor buffer overflows. When the buffer overflows, it will clobber the canary, making the overflow evident. This is a reference to the historic practice of using canaries in coal mines, since they would be affected by toxic gases earlier than the miners, thus providing a biological warning system.

I bet the correct answer is 'Skynet' running on a toaster. Just a hunch.

Windows XP? Really? I think someone needs to dust off their networking skills. Gotta be Windows 2000 Server.

Hmm, Windows NT4 Server? Nah, that's so last century. I'm going with D, Windows 2000 Server.

I think it might be Windows NT4 Server based on the ports that are open.

I'm not sure, but I think it might be Windows NT4 Server because of the specific ports open.
