To start, they never told us or mention on their site (as far as i searched) the use of linux in their product. Another thing is that they don't give us root access nor any other type of local access to the box besides the http page the appliance have to be managed. The thing is that i asked for the kernel source they use in the system and they said they can't give it since they have some proprietary code in it, as far as i understood. I really don't know the proper way to report a GPL violation so i thought this was a good place. If there is any question please feel free to ask, i'll do my best to answer it.
