nmap -sV -p [port] -v is your friend. Nmap service scan will identify the 
service (http, ldap, whatever), the server's name (apache, openldap,..)  and 
version number (to some approximation) very reliably these days. The most 
rrecent version of nmap included lots of new service fingerprints; if it's a 
custom warez server it may still fingerprint as something recognisable, and if 
not, that in itself tells you something.
