server-administration disable and disclose ANYTHING which is not
explicit needed to prevent exploit-cases you can not imagine
while configure your machine

Umm aren't you saying precisely what everyone is saying?

"fact is that nobody out there needs to know your software-version for something useful"

Which was the point of my weblog examples. I am aware that it means nothing except someone tried something. The fact is people don't need the software version to exploit. So displaying changes nothing. That seems to be the point of this thread.
