I just installed it in solaris 10 x86 VM as well. I took slightly different
route, but it compiled pretty clean.

I went with opencsw instead of sunfreeware for my packages.

I tried to stay away from /usr/sfw to avoid risk breaking xymon due to some
solaris patch in the future.

If you run the commands exactly below it should compile fine and your
environment will be under /opt/csw.

Some of the packages below might not be necessary to install, so YMMV

# pkgadd -d http://get.opencsw.org/now
(edit the following two files to add /opt/csw/bin and /opt/csw/sbin in PATH
and SUPATH
# vi /etc/default/login
# vi /etc/default/su
(logout and log back again)
# pkgutil -y -i sudo gmake fping gcc4core pcre libpcre_dev rrdtool librrd4
rrdtool_dev openldap_dev openssl_utils libssl_dev libwrap_dev  (all in one
line - it will take a while to finish)
# useradd -m -d /export/home/xymon -c "Xymon Server" -s /bin/bash xymon
# visudo -f /etc/opt/csw/sudoers.d/xymon
(and add this line
xymon ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /opt/csw/sbin/fping)
# export PATH=$PATH:/usr/ccs/bin
# gunzip xymon-4.3.9.tar.gz
# tar xvf xymon-4.3.9.tar
# cd xymon-4.3.9
# MAKE=gmake ./configure.server --ssllib /opt/csw/lib --sslinclude
/opt/csw/include/openssl
# gmake

That's all.
