Hey Steve -

Not sure if you're looking for referer strings for Solaris machines, but 
heres a couple to look out for:

NS 4.78 on Solaris 2.6:
Mozilla/4.78[en](X11;U;SunOS5.6sun4m)

NS 4.72 on Solaris 7:
Mozilla/4.72[en](X11;U;SunOS5.7sun4u)

NS 4.7 on Solaris 8 Intel edition:
Mozilla/4.7[en](X11;I;SunOS5.8i86pc)

NS 4.79 on Solaris 8:
Mozilla/4.79[en](X11;U;SunOS5.8sun4u)

Basically you need to grep for the SunOS string just like you do for a 
linux or mac string in the user-agent. Hope that helps, holler if you 
need anything else :)

.djc.
