Solaris 8 didn't include a firewall by default. I guess the two most popular for 8 would be SunScreen and IPFilter. The best way to check if either are active is running ifconfig.

ifconfig <interface> modlist

IE:

Code:
ifconfig hme0 modlist

It'll give you a multiline output, but be on the look out for a line with eps (or efs, can't recall) for SunScreen or pfil for IPFilter.
