Hi Alan, I just tried to build ettercap from SFE (spec-files-extra): https://pkgbuild.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/pkgbuild/spec-files-extra/trunk/SFEettercap.spec. With some small tweak with the spec file (update the Require from SFElibpcap to SUNWlibpcap for example), it builds and works on my OpenSolaris b105 box.
Please note that you'll have to install the SUNWGtku, SUNWlibpcap packages from the online repository, build/install libnet from SFE: https://pkgbuild.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/pkgbuild/spec-files-extra/trunk/SFElibnet.spec. As for how to build spec files, please refer to the online document: http://opensolaris.org/os/project/jds/contributing/building/. If you want to stick with the libnet.h from blastwave(/opt/csw), I guess you'll have to do "./configure --with-libnet=/opt/csw/" from the configure.in file.
