Hi,

you need to know version of client machine or the server machine on which your website resides.

also is it hosted on Windows/Linux/Mac ?

once you provide this details, i'll surely answer your q's.

Using JS can help

Like

if (navigator.appVersion.indexOf("Win")!=-1) OSName="Windows";
if (navigator.appVersion.indexOf("Mac")!=-1) OSName="MacOS";
if (navigator.appVersion.indexOf("X11")!=-1) OSName="UNIX";
if (navigator.appVersion.indexOf("Linux")!=-1) OSName="Linux";

Actually I want location of hosts file for appending some IP in that
Windows Vista = C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC
Windows XP = C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC
Windows 2K = C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC
Win 98/ME = C:\WINDOWS

That cannot be done on client machine without installing some program.
