Hi All,
    I've been doing some research on NetAPP recently.  Does anyone know 
what OS ONTAP is based upon.  I was under the assumption that is was a 
derivitive of GNU/Linux (esp. due to the well know devs. they have 
working for them).  Yet according to this article it is a BSD derivitive:

". Personally, I like the NetApp NFS server from Network Appliance. It 
runs BSD, supports the NFS protocol, and works very well. I'll call it 
as nfs01."

Maybe I am confused and the author is refering to the NetAPP hardware?

Cheers,
    Pete
