Send more samples. That will take some time, too, but will eventually
save it... ;-) Seriously. I had an opportunity to fingerprint a bunch of
known boxes running a rather rare OS and various IP stacks, and I took
it and sent in the samples. What else is there to do? -- AFAIK, nmap is
the most complete OS fingerprinter.
