has anyone heard of vulnerabilities in the Network Appliance base operating systems? they're the company that makes large filer head systems and my company is considering buying one. the operating system is unix or unix based but an nmap scan on known open ports in demonstration showed absolutely nothing - no operating systems id either. i was curious as to whether this is really as safe as it seems...
If I remember correctlly, the configuration interface of these devices closelly resembles the UN*X standard, this does *not* however imply that they use a UN*X-like operating system or kernel...... If indeed their code (kernel, OS, call it what you like) is UN*X-like it would probably be more or less completely developed in-house. At least, I havn't seen any of the usual "advertising clause" messages.... /olle
