If you only had Solaris 9 machines, you could probably do something like:

/opt/sfw/bin/rsync -avz --partial --stats 
rsync://www.ibilio.org/sun-packages/csw/unstable/sparc/5.8 
/export/blastwave/unstable/sparc/5.8

and

/opt/sfw/bin/rsync -avz --partial --stats 
rsync://www.ibiblio.org/sun-packages/csw/unstable/sparc/5.9 
/export/blastwave/unstable/sparc/5.9

I have no clue if this will work or not.
