tcplist can be run on Solaris 2.3 as long as you have lsof v3 or newer
running, actually tcplist can be run on almost any system with lsof!! I had
lsof v3.8 and some of the options were different, but a little tweaking and
it is running well now !!! I also picked up identd, which makes tcplist even
more useful.

lsof can be found at: vic.cc.purdue.edu/pub/tools/unix/lsof
tcplist and identd can be found at: coombs.anu.edu.au/pub/net/ident

 
The following responses were received:

>ntop ftp://coombs.anu.edu/pub/net/ident/ntop1.18.tar.Z
>.. Alan Hill in Montreal, Canada SUN&cisco&networking stuff .
>` LanSer, for Wireless Financial Transactions, www.LanSer.net '
