The blue ribbon here is to find a vuln in the honeypot itself and break out
into the host OS. But that may not be very realistic.
You could try fingerprinting the OS and services that it is imitating and
compare that list to which honeypots imitate what. But that's kind of a
shot in the dark, and if it's imitating only IIS on Windows, well, then,
that's not going to cut it.
Have you considered bribing one of the NOC guys to let you in or just tell
you what they're using? :)
