You are not doing anything wrong, actually. Solaris just happens to

This change was implemented in the 4.3.x version of the Solaris client.
I will be switching to that shortly. In the meantime, what is the
recommended fix -- in the link above, is #1 or #2 preferable (or does it
not matter)?
The second one is what went into the 4.3.x Solaris client, so on the
client you can edit the ~hobbit/client/bin/hobbitclient-sunos.sh script
so it has
echo "[ifstat]"
/usr/bin/kstat -p -s '[or]bytes64' | egrep -v 'wrsmd|mac' | sort
It doesn't require that you upgrade the server-side of Xymon.
