Well, I goofed up with this one. Properly patched Solaris doesn't seem to react to intensive portscan in any way. Oops. Unpatched Solaris inetd does hang and doesn't seem to do it on purpose. It doesn't log anything and it doesn't answer to any host connecting to it, not only the one that did the scan. Inetd sleeps on accept syscall (normally it sleeps on poll) and stays that way until restarted. Alla.
