Yeouch! You should either have Prngd, or some kind of /dev/random /dev/urandom on there. Apache does have it's *built-in* by default, though it's not truly recommended for production use.
Solaris doesn't do SSL well. :( There is an official backport from Solaris 9, to solaris 7 and 8 for an official /dev/random and /dev/urandom devices. Search over at bigadmin, and you should find it.
