Description: #
Siphon is a passive OS fingerprinter which sniffs network traffic passing the local machine and uses characteristics of the TCP stream to identify the operating system running on the endpoints. In contrast to active fingerprinters like nmap and queso, no additional connections need to be made to the target system in order to fingerprint it. WWW: http://www.subterrain.net/projects/siphon/

Mark this port deprecated, with an expiration date of 2004-06-18, so
it'll be removed during the next ports tree cleanup.

As mentioned on ports@, the project has been dead for quite a while now,
and there are better and more up to date tools in the ports tree.
