Thanks Peraderabo,
You picked that up nicely where I left off.
dcshungu, glad we were able to help. Now apart from a clean reinstall, don't forget to change the root paswords to all your machines after reinstall, and make sure user passwords are also changed. Also if you don't need to use them you should consider disabling telnet/rogin/rsh/rcp/rexec/ftp and using only the secure equivalents.

Just left our IT people a message, but my sense is that the damage won't be extensive since our IT explicitly tells people that they do not support UNIX boxes, so that most people have avoided getting them or have been migrating to supported platforms.
There may well be no support for unix desktops, but there may be unix servers elswhere in the network as mailservers etc. but even if this is not the case your IT people should at least be concerned about the security breach, whether it was internal or external.

Is Solaris 10 stable? Does any one have experience with it yet?
For Solaris 10 you should start a new thread to ask about it since you are moving on to a new topic.
