I'm not sure.  Do you know of an easy way to check?  Otherwise, I'll have to look into it ...

Okay, I tried this quickly..  The constant seemed the same in Solaris as you had for OpenBSD, but I did not have a 
net/bpf.h on my system, so I'm basing that on a file I browsed on line.  After applying the patch, nmap did not 
discover any open no ports.  Any thoughts?

Thanks!
