Running Unix with 9X
If I have a couple of hard drives in my computer and I am running 98 or 2000 (currently 98 but every once in awhile I switch to 2000) how abouts to I go getting unix on my computer? Aren't the installations different depending on the operating system. Am I right when I say you need to install unix second if you are running 98 and if you are running 2000 you need to install it first? Also, what are the command lines that you need to know when installing Unix/Linux. What are the major differences between the two operating systems (Unix and Linux)? Is Unix all command based and Linux gui?
I have Corel's version of Linux, Redhat's version and Mandrakes version. I was thinking about putting in Redhat.
Anything anyone could tell me would be greatly appreciated. Also if anyone knows any sites that have a lot of good reference material that I could view that would be great too. Thanks. Noah from Stillwater, MN

synos
synos(1) Mail Avenger 0.8.3 synos(1)
NAME
synos - guess operating system from TCP SYN fingerprint
SYNOPSIS
synos [--mtu mtu] [--db path] syn-fingerprint
DESCRIPTION
synos takes a SYN fingerprint, in the format described for the CLIENT_SYNFP environment variable in the avenger(1) man page, and outputs a
guess as to the type of the client operating system. synos makes use of the OpenBSD SYN fingerprint database (which is also repackaged
with Mail Avenger).
OPTIONS
--mtu val
Certain operating systems set the initial TCP window size based on the maximum transmission unit, or MTU, of the network. For such
operating systems, synos usually checks the window size using both the client's MSS option plus 40 bytes (for TCP and IP headers), or a
hard-coded MTU, which defaults to 1,500 bytes. If either value works, the fingerprint is considered to match the operating system.
You can change the value 1,500 by specifying this option. A value of 0 tells synos to use only the value derived from the MSS option.
--db file
Specifies an alternate location for the SYN fingerprint database.
FILES
/usr/local/share/pf.os
Default location of SYN fingerprint database.
SEE ALSO
avenger(1), asmtpd(8)
The Mail Avenger home page: <http://www.mailavenger.org/>.
The OpenBSD home page: <http://www.openbsd.org/>.
BUGS
The operating system type is determined by heuristics that are not always reliable. Moreover, not all operating systems can be
distinguished. The database may not even contain a client's particular operating system and version.
It is not hard to fool synos deliberately by changing TCP socket options or injecting raw packets onto the network.
