Thanks. I suppose I may wait and just upgrade to 4.3.x as I will have to touch every client to fix this anyhow; probably easier to just trim the big logfile until then (disk space is how I even noticed this one).
Thanks for the quick answers!

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.
