How do I determine what the host system is?

Question

dnsstuff.com used to have an option to reveal what type of
system
running under what type of OS is being used by a domain's
host. The
option is gone. I need to search for scripts, but do not know
if the
current web host for the site is Microsoft, unix, etc.
What utility (or web link) can be used to reveal the type of
system
and OS a site is sitting on?
Thanks,
-CH

I have been known to remark from time to time. It's only
sometimes
successful. I guess I am a poor remarker. 8) But thanks. Look
it up. It's
completely passive and called "Server Spy".
