Is there a freeware software firewall available for Sun Solaris systems?

I have an old Sun Solaris email server and I'm wondering what is available
on the way of a freeware software firewall, if anything. The system was
behind a hardware firewall that died, and will be replaced if there is not a
software solution. Thanks!

For Solaris 8 or 9, Sun provides the SunScreen firewall for free (Lite
edition for 8, full version for 9).  For other releases, there's
ipfilter from the normal open source/freeware sites.
