1/ This is nothing to do with FreeBSD, so why are you posting to so many
FreeBSD lists? Unix != FreeBSD != Solaris.

2/ There are two forms of Sun Firewall, from Sun. Sunscreen and Suncreen
lite. Neither are great unless you have access to Sun's course notes for
the software.

3/ If you want to compare Unix Firewalls, then try something like Ipcop
as a starter, then replicate what it does, with freensd, then see how
many of those packages then will work on solaris.
