Does Solaris 2.5 support RFC 1323 "Large Windows" in TCP? I am trying to
run an UltraSPARC in a Wide-Area ATM network (ACTS ATM Internetwork) and
am trying to optimize this machines network performance in this environment.

I know that there is a LFN (Long, Fat Network) patch available for
Solaris 2.4 available on playground.sun.com, however I have seen nothing
yet for Solaris 2.5.

No, window scaling is not implemented in Sun Solaris.

Yes, window scaling is implemented in Cray Solaris!
Guess you could by a Cray..... ;-)
