I also received a copy of fstat, a standard BSD release utility,
from Vic Abell, that he made work for Sun file systems.  It's nicer
than ofiles.  I use it all the time. 

It doesn't give very good information on rnodes.  I modified it to chase
these down by following kernel pointers and print out the same device as
stat would give you, and to find the right inum as well.  Unfortunately,
my kernel looks different on the inside, so my changes won't help anyone
else much, unless they're on a Convex, in which case they should already
have fstat.  It's a worthwhile exercise for someone who wants to learn
about how vnodes, inodes, snodes, and rnodes are all connected.
