First there is no such product as Solaris 5.8 it is either SunOS 5.8 or
Solaris 8, please try not to mix them even though people know what you
mean it sometimes gets coded into scripts which can break because of it.
Just for clarification this binary is NOT part of Solaris 8 it is
part of the SUNWsspop package which will only be installed on the SSP
(System Service Processor) machine of a Enterprise 10,000 (aka Starfire)
machine.
The correct path is /opt/SUNWssp/bin/snmpd
