Yo...
    Before ya start askin questions about the security, ya
gotta figure out whether there runnin SunOS 4.1.3 [BSD based]
or 5.x [AT&T SVR4 based].  Under 4.1.3, passwds are in 

which you can't read.  No one is allowed to log in as root, 
only su to it.  Auditing is enabled; options vary.  That's
basically it....in 5.x, passwds are in /etc/shadow like
Sys V.  There are a hell of a lot of PD things they could be
running which would make it a lot tougher, like
tcpwrappers, logging daemons, modified sendmail, ...
I'm not familiar with that site; telnet there or try the
SMTP port to figure the OS rev. number...
