Similar situation here: vanilla 2.4.2, with web serving/ftp/hotline/napster/etc.,
and I get this:

Running nmap (v2.53) on that IP doesn't resolve to a known OS, so that doesn't help.  Version 2.54BETA7
gives this output:

  Starting nmap V. 2.54BETA7 ( www.insecure.org/nmap/ )
  Warning:  OS detection will be MUCH less reliable because we did not find at least 1 open and 1 closed TCP port
  All 1534 scanned ports on vsat-148-75-118-138.ssa7.mcl.starband.net (148.75.118.138) are: filtered
  Remote OS guesses: Apple LaserWriter 16/600 PS, HP 6P, or HP 5 Printer, Apple LaserWriter 8500 (PostScript version 3010.103), MultiTech MultiVOIP Version 2.01A Firmware, Mulit-Tech standalone firewall box, version 3, MultiTech CommPlete (modem server) RAScard, Xerox 8830 Plotter, Xerox DocuPrint C55, Xerox DocuPrint N40

  Nmap run completed -- 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 163 seconds

So that doesn't appear to help too much either.
