The purpose of this paper is to try to enumerate and briefly describe all applications and technics deployed for defeating Nmap OS Fingerprint, but in any case, security by obscurity is not good approach; it can be a good security measure but please take into account that is more important to have a tight security environment (patches, firewalls, ids, …) than hiding your OS.
This is the first sentence of the paper and sums it up rather nicely. Definitely a little technical, but I found it fascinating.
