Sean:

This is a known issue and the bugid is 6143. This had been fixed with 
the latest SUNWinstalladm-tools.  I had verified the nightly package 
works from here:

/net/indiana-build.central/extrapool/nightly_builds/slim_source/packages/i386/nightly-nd

I was going to check the one that was integrated into 106 repo for x86 
and make sure that it works.  The repo is ipkg.sfbay:29047.

You will need to get the package, remove the service and create the 
service again.
