If you're referring to the I-Opener from Netpliance, the underlying
operating system is QNX. They are on the web. From what I've read, both
telnetd and httpd supposedly run on the box by default.

Subject: network appliance...

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...

thanks,
