Well... what's listed at port 100232 in your /etc/inetd.conf. My handy
2.6 box shows:

100232/10       tli     rpc/udp wait root /usr/sbin/sadmind     sadmind

Which is known to be exploitable. It's your remote Solaris admin stuff.
It should be turned off unless you're using Solctice Admin.

Does 'rpcinfo -p localhost' show anything neato?

Take care!
