Identify process owning TCP connection on Solaris 10

I've been seeing outgoing TCP connections on a SPARC Solaris 10 box, that look like these in the output of netstat:

xxxx.46396 ipXXXXXX.speed.planet.nl.telnet 8192 0 49664 0 TIME_WAIT

They come and go and sometimes last for hours.

I am looking for owners of active, established TCP connections - not for listening TCP sockets.

Is there any way to tell :

1) which process owns (or owned) this connection ?
2) when was the connection created ?

Things I already tried that do not work:
a) lsof
b) 'pfiles' and utilities based on it

Can Solaris ipfilter be use to track this down ?

Thanks.
