the codebases are exactly the same(or should be). kernels between workstation and server should be the same. The main difference is in tuning, a few registry checks, and sometimes more software is installed. If you can use theese techniques to id the different systems, you may have a chance. try looking at things like #of syns before dropping, perhaps distribution of ISN's, or something along those lines.
