Is it possible through Netcraft or some other such service to learn which OS/Webserver most ISPs --- not any webserver! -- use and, if possible, by country?


Security Space has some free research reports. You can get something
kind of like what you want by going to
http://www.securityspace.com/s_survey/data/index.html
then clicking on the "web srvrs by domain" link. For each TLD you can
link on the TLD link and get a breakdown of webserver software.

This doesn't tell you a lot about OSes since Apache (at 73.30%
globally) runs under multiple operating systems.

And it doesn't tell much about what *ISPs* are using. If I put up a server toworrow and serve 3 pages a day, it's going to count for as much as that of a major provider. Finally, it doesn't tell much about the popularity of servers amongst tech savvy people.

But thanks for the link anyhow. It does seem stange to me that IIS had a 30% market share in 2001 and only 20% now:
