Querying network connection speed without root access?

I'm trying to query the current network connection speed on a bunch of machines (mostly Ultra-10s running Solaris 8) without root access.

I know that I can use ndd to do this as root, but I don't see any way to do it without the root access. A search through the netstat man page, docs.sun.com, etc. didn't turn up anything.

Thanks!

Dan
