File path? Seems to me that even if you knew the client OS, that'd
provide next to no information about the installation pathnames of the
client software. Maybe you need to be a bit clearer about what you're
trying to accomplish.

It is much simpler then that. My data includes file references.
One table has the filename with a path placeholder and another table
contains the windows and linux versions of the full path. This is for an
intranet and we _always_ have the same drive letters (windows) and mount
paths (linux) for every client. When the client requests data that
includes a file reference, I want to send the relevant path.
