Thanks to all, but it turns out to have been a Solaris 9 issue rather
than hardware. Our basic jumpstart locks down most things and in doing
so deleted the line for "rpc.smserverd" from inetd.conf. I built a
box from scratch and compared that config with a jumpstarted server &
noticed the below lines in /etc/inetd.conf so I added them to the jumpstart,
hup'd inetd and restarted vold and the cd showed up.

# smserverd to support removable media devices
100155/1 tli rpc/ticotsord wait root /usr/lib/smedia/rpc.smserverd rpc.smserverd

Thanks again, especially to Loris Serena, Pascal Grostabussiat, John
Malick, Alan Pae, and Esteban Rosas.
