Is the current Solaris 10 system located somewhere a bit different than the old Solaris 9 system was? If so, and if the script produces no output for long periods of time, maybe you are going through a stateful firewall that you weren't before, and it has limited state capacity and times out apparently inactive connections to reclaim state table entries. (I've seen _that_ happen quite often...) I think processes on the remote side might well die with SIGHUP if the connection is dropped, which would _not_ produce core dumps (but could be detected by process accounting, for example).
