Neither. :-) As Netcraft shows, cdc.gov is hosted by Akamai. And if you ask that server for a non existing file, e.g. http://www.cdc.gov/foobar, it returns the Header 'Server: AkamaiGHost'. So this looks a lot like a reverse proxy running under Linux (and Netcraft of course can only probe the IP of the reverse proxy) and one or more backends running IIS (probably under some well known OS)... This ist also explained under http://uptime.netcraft.com/up/accuracy.html#os. P.S.: Nice spot, though. :-) Regards, Axel -- Axel Beckert - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://abe.home.pages.de/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
