    knoppix.com

    has anyone else noticed or is it just me?

    knoppix.com runs on iis6...

    i didnt belive it at first but after some testing im 99% sure its running on iis6.


    banner inspection seems to point that its iis6 as it gives the exact same response to a GET / HTTP/1.1 request with no hostname as microsoft.com does(ie hiding server).

    Code:
    (root@runerm) (/home/pureone/sotm)-(20:04:13) #  nc -v knoppix.com 80
    Warning: inverse host lookup failed for 63.251.83.56: Unknown host
    knoppix.com [63.251.83.56] 80 (www) open

    so im sure im not going insane...



    but really what i want to know is why?

    why is knoppix.com hosted on a windows box rather then a linux box?

    Funny; it looks like you're right, as confirmed by Netcraft....

    knoppix.com is using MS IIS6 but is only as a redirector to knopper.net http://toolbar.netcraft.com/site_rep...ww.knopper.net

    Using 2 PCs, Knoppix, a hub, ethereal & lynx, I sniffed the http stream when connecting to http://knoppix.com and got this:
    Code:
    <html><head>
    
    <title></title></head>
    
    <frameset rows='100%, *' frameborder=no framespacing=0 border=0>
    <frame src="http://www.knopper.net/knoppix/index-en.html" name=mainwindow frameborder=no framespacing=0 marginheight=0 marginwidth=0></frame>
    </frameset>

    Thanks. Didn't think about that.

    Using 2 PCs, Knoppix, a hub, ethereal & lynx, I sniffed the http stream when connecting to http://knoppix.com and got this:

    You can also get that by choosing "view - page source" in a browser.

    i dont get why knopper doesnt just point knoppix.com to his ip....
    its easyer to buy a domain name then to rent web space on a server i would of guessed.

    I thought the same thing.

    Maybe he bought it off of someone else. Maybe someone else bought it & offered it to him & maybe the html redirector is the quick & dirty way of getting it done.
