The "g_ether" driver has an RNDIS option that people seem to be
using quite successfully  Current Linux 2.6 releases include it.

For the "g_serial" driver, recent updates have taught it to act
like a CDC-ACM modem, which Windows can talk to.

In all those cases, WIndows rather annoyingly insists that on
manual driver configuration steps that involve some "inf" file.
If you're having problems connecting using g_ether or g_serial,
likely the issue is that you didn't perform those steps.

(If you're asking about how to make BLOB or other non-Linux
device firmware talk to Windows, this is the wrong list for you.)

No more than you can judge what OS any other system on the
network is running.   Though for now it's a pretty safe bet that
if the host chose the RNDIS configuration, it's not running Linux ...
and that otherwise, it's not running Windows!
