How to know if the web server is Windows or Linux based!!!!!!!

We surf Internet everyday that means we connect to several servers and computers each time we visit websites.

Those websites use different-different platform for eg. linux,windows,mac etc..

But how to identify them!!!!!??

First we will go through some basic idea about TTL packets.

Time to live (TTL) Packets :- TTL is mechanism that limits the lifespan of data in a computer or networks.TTL refers to how many routers your packet can go through before it expires. Usually a packet finds its home in less than 32 hops, but 64-128 is a good default.Each operating system's default TTL value is different . We can identify the operating system platform used by client or server.

How to Identify web server platform ???

Step 1

goto run > type cmd

Ping "website address or ip address" press enter

now look at TTL="value"

1) If TTL value <64 then the server is Linux based
2) If TTL value >64 but <128 then the server is Windows bsaed
3) TTL value > 128 then the server is Mac and others
