Without having seen one of those contracts, I would not be able to comment
on the particulars.

Since the pieces under discussion in this scenario are all GPL, then any
recipient has the right to redistribute it freely.  Any attempt to restrict
that right is in itself a violation of the GPL.

Sharing such things as userids and passwords to restricted sites would be
another matter entirely.

Suppose another customer had a SuSE support contract.  Could
that customer email Robert the kernel patch rpm file without
violating their support contract?  That's all he would need to run
guest LAN on his existing HW/SW.
