If you are referring to the Network Appliance NetCache appliance, there is
no Operating System. It is a solid state caching machine.

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,
